Our Rose Collection began with Anna's very first lino cut design, created at the Château. Drawing on the Arts and Crafts movement, she imagined an enveloping rose garden, with climbing roses winding across the walls of our bold, deep-green guest room at the Château.
Anna has now taken the design in two new directions. The first is a new wallpaper edition in light, gentle tones: pastel blue, soft antique rose and sage, each paired with a creamy off-white print. Airy and luminous, these colourways bring the calm of the rose garden into any room. The second is a collection of silk scarves. Rather than simply transferring the pattern, Anna returned to her sketchbook and made new drawings, reworking the roses so they come alive on silk. Printed and hand-finished in Italy, the scarves carry the spirit of the original design in a form you can wear every day.

Midnight Roses – Petit Foulard

"I wanted my roses to live twice: on paper for your walls, and in silk to carry with you."
Three quiet colourways, still printed by hand on machines a century old.
Antique Rose
Sage Green
Printing the roses, roll by rollThe papers are surface printed in the North of England on machines more than a century old. Engraved rollers lay down the colour wet-in-wet, so every roll carries the soft, painterly texture of a print made by hand.
The Château, where it began
Blue Mist
A gentle tone-on-tone contrast, with a quiet vintage charm.
When I printed a fabric sample from one of my lino-cut designs, originally meant for an upholstery project, my mother-in-law wrapped it around her neck and asked if it could be a scarf.
It led us back to Italy, to artisans who work with the highest quality silk twill, the finest we could find, and who print and hand-finish each piece with incredible care. For us, these scarves are quiet luxury: simple, beautiful things made properly, meant to last for years.

That moment stayed with me, and I headed out to find a company capable of translating my designs onto silk, the same company I had worked with during my years as a designer at Balmain.

With everything we create, from artisanal candles to bespoke wallpapers, we honour traditional craftmanship while infusing a contemporary feel. Each product is crafted with care, using the finest materials, to ensure it is not only beautiful but built to last.
Each design is created with the same care and attention to detail that I put into the very first lino print I hung in our chateau. They reflect my journey—drawing from my background in high fashion, my love of printmaking, and the desire to create something truly unique for others to bring into their homes. For the past 6 months, I’ve been working closely with the print factory using traditional Surface Print technique on century old machines in the North of England. The process uses engraved rollers and a wet-in-wet method which gives a unique painterly texture and a hand-printed look.
When the cold season arrives in Normandy, we retreat indoors to the comfort and warmth of the Winter Salon. We listen to music, play games or read a book by the fire. With SALON D’HIVER we wanted to capture an olfactory memory of those moments: A warm and comforting scent of smoky log fire, tobacco and tonka beans.
On May 16th this year we spotted the first flowers bloom on our Philadelphus Coronarus, which the French call “Poet’s Jasmine’’. The air was filled with the most enchanting scent. This is the heart note of Seize Mai, crossed with the iodine notes of the sea air that blows in from the coast.
