Clef des Champs in Spring mist
Our Spring Mist colourway sees layers of translucent washes combined with vibrant hand-painted flowers giving the illusion of infinite depth.
Should you wish, selected poppies can be embroidered onto the design in the finest satin stitch, adding a further sense of luxury.
Block-painted flora and fauna sit forward on a Cardigan Silk background created with translucent washes of watercolour paint, which lend a strong sense of depth to this seductive colourway.

Each painted panel begins its life as a length of raw silk which we size with a natural adhesive so that it receives paint without bleeding. We often brush the silk with iridescent pearl washes to add further lustre before backing with traditional rice paper. This forms the extraordinary canvas on which our artists work their magic.
Our artists are masters of traditional Chinese painting and work in teams to meticulously plan out each room before slowly building up the many layers of detail and colour. To achieve intensity and shade, the artist will blend hues, often using two brushes simultaneously.
