About us
Chelsea Textiles was formed in 1990 to faithfully recreate antique textiles, cushions and furnishing accessories, the originals of which are becoming vanishingly scarce. Chelsea Textiles is a family firm, started by Mona Perlhagen, who moved to London from New York, where she had been a fashion buyer for Bloomingdale’s. She identified a need for perfect recreations of antique embroidered fabrics and cushions, to complement traditional interiors, and set about researching and sourcing authentic materials and the world’s best craftsmen, to produce hand-embroidered fabrics of the same quality as those of the 17th and 18th centuries. Jenny Simpson, her daughter, has worked for Chelsea Textiles since 2004 and has risen to become their main designer of fabrics, furniture and cushions. She has brought a whole new dimension to the company’s antique fabric and furniture designs, for which Chelsea Textiles has been known over the past twenty years. Her youthful eye has developed the range into items, which appeal to a whole new audience of stylish younger adults. Her modern take on traditional designs, which have always been thought of as ideally suited to period settings, updates them for contemporary apartment dwellers, without losing any of their classic style.

Introducing Indian Iris - Faithfully recreated from an original document in the Chelsea Textiles archive, Indian Iris is inspired by a stunning 18th Century Mughal block print design. Working closely with English printers, we have strived to capture the essence of the original antique’s delicately time-worn patina. These beautiful imperfections give this design its unique and exquisite charm. Indian Iris is available as a printed fabric and coordinating wallpaper in three beautifully muted colourways: https://lnkd.in/dH-h8TRe Photography by Stephen Belcher #chelseatextiles #chelseatextilesfabric #indianblockprint #blockprint #interiors #fabric #patina #ethicallymade #madeinengland #interiorinspiration

A Tree of Life design has dense leaf and tree patterns often with Indian and Chinoiserie motifs that have been Anglicised, particularly in the use of geometric filling.

Discover our Gustavian collection - Since the launch in 2004, the collection has grown extensively, incorporating other Swedish periods such as Baroque and Rococo. The combination of muted colours, elegant silhouettes, and the practicality of Gustavian furniture makes it equally at home in traditional rooms as more contemporary settings. Made by hand using sustainable materials, each piece is uniquely hand-painted and hand-distressed by master craftsmen. The worn paint finish found in the original pieces is faithfully reproduced with multiple layers of paint and standing to achieve an authentic look.

Venetian Damask by Patrick Kinmonth for Chelsea Textiles - Inspired by the traditions of printed papers & woven silk damask in Venice. Damask, named after the city of Damascus where it was made from the middle ages onward, takes shapes derived from nature and abstracted into patterns over hundreds of years, travelling from east to west along the silk road, bringing its exotic garden of idealised plant forms to the finest medieval interiors. The ornate Venetian Damask fabric is printed in England on three linen grounds across a palette of six colours, and is also available as a beautiful fine-art wallpaper.

Chelsea Textiles' Toile de Joie is a whimsical printed fabric and wallpaper from the mind of influential Catalan artist Ramiro Fernandez Saus, capturing the imaginative thrill of discovering unexplored lands. The fabric, now also available as a wallpaper in a smaller scale, becomes a jungle harbouring hidden locations, figures & animals that reveal themselves the more the scene is explored. “My characters are poetic figures: they don’t have a logical explanation. They arrive to me in an intuitive way and most of the time I don’t know why. But I can always tell for sure if they are going to enlighten the mystery in the painting:” - Ramiro Fernandez Saus Discover more here: https://lnkd.in/dEJg6ZDT #chelseatextiles #toiledejoie #ramirofernandezsaus #chelseatextilesfabrics #illustration #interiorinspiration #wallpaper #printedfabric
