{"product_id":"cole-and-son-japanese-chinoiserie-grasscloth","title":"Cole \u0026 Son | Japanese Chinoiserie - Grasscloth","description":"\u003cp\u003eChinoiserie has always been a European idea of the East, and Japanese Chinoiserie is candid about that. It is a composed landscape, assembled from several Japanese gardens rather than copied from one. The panel runs 140 cm wide and 3.5 m high, and the composition is read vertically: hills at the base, a stream that cascades through the middle, blossom and branch carried up into the top third.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe drawing has a calligrapher's economy. A single stroke gives a branch its whole taper; the water is described in a handful of lines and left. Sakura appears where a real garden would place it, at the turn of a path or over water, and the eye is led rather than shown. On natural grasscloth all of this gains a further texture, the woven fibre catching light unevenly across the panel so the scene shifts a little through the day.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003ePanels hang to a straight match. Because the design is a scene rather than a repeat, it rewards planning: measure the wall first, then decide where the horizon and the blossom should fall in relation to a dado, a bed head or a chimney breast. In a bedroom, a dining room or a small entrance hall, one run of it is usually enough.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Cole \u0026 Son","offers":[{"title":"Pearlescent","offer_id":57800206975358,"sku":"126\/5017","price":1242.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Sample - Pearlescent","offer_id":57800207008126,"sku":"SAMPLE-126\/5017","price":2.5,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0909\/9880\/0766\/files\/C_S_Shinrin_Yoku_Japanese_Chinoiserie_126-5017.jpg?v=1785945716","url":"https:\/\/shop.tobiasoliverinteriors.com\/products\/cole-and-son-japanese-chinoiserie-grasscloth","provider":"Tobias Oliver","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
