We have two gorgeous roller blinds in a traditional toile de jouy pattern, one is a fresh apple green, the toile green and the other is classic wedgewood blue. These blinds have a timeless quality to them and their classic delicate colouring will work fantastically well in so many settings.

Obviously such stylish blinds will add that little touch of ‘je ne sais quoi’ to an already elegant and charming room but what about using them cleverly in a more modern setting? Each of the blinds will add a quirky touch to a more modern room.

Toile de Jouy originated in France in the late 1700s and literally means “cloth from Jouy-en-Josas” and refers to a fabric design that has a repeated pattern in a single colour, usually depicting a fairly complex pastoral scene. The fabric design remains popular, often with a modern twist in contemporary colours, take a look at these pieces, there’s something for everyone’s taste.
