Thomas O'Brien Collection Design: TOB827A-Chippendale Trellis

Rather than a lacework pattern as in Chippendale Ring, this carpet highlights the solid shapes created in the space of a relaxed quatrefoil trellis. One version of this silk and wool design is in lustrous silver with olive; another features a rosy sienna with an interloping pattern of cream shapes. The pattern is book matched from the center, as a floor would be laid out, which creates a symmetrical inner panel with a natural frame. A traditional silhouette put to a more modern effect.
