Liberty Fabric Tana Lawn® Deco Paisley C

While creating this beautiful watercolour paisley, the Liberty design team drew inspiration from a group of swatches found in a 1920s French pattern book in the archive.

The Archivist’s Edit is curated by our legendary archivist Anna Buruma, the protector and custodian of Liberty’s design history for over 20 years. Encompassing 20 beautiful prints, the capsule collection shines a light into the more unusual and lesser-known corners of Liberty’s archive. Fragile fragments and half-forgotten artworks are regenerated into new designs by the in-house artists, drawing inspiration from Buruma’s favourite periods within the brand’s 145-year timeline as well as from across her own life and history.
