CloseFolly in Jeunesse
With its subtle Moonlight Silk base colour and muted, natural tones describing birds and foliage, Jeunesse is a remarkably serene and beautiful colourway.
Our Folly design layout is at once bold, classical and whimsical. The scene moves between rocks, water and lush foliage, with beautiful birds throughout. With quite a dense layout and a deep, heavy ground comprising both land and water, the feeling is that of being immersed in a botanical paradise.

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.
