Gilbert is an Art Deco fabric derived from Walter Gilbert’s original 1933 sculptural frieze for Derry & Toms. Leaping deer and swallows move between stylised fountains, palms and decorative forms, translated from the original relief into a repeating textile in collaboration with Frank Holmes Fine Décor. The design is deliberately tonal, allowing the intricate artwork to read almost as texture from a distance, with the finer details revealing themselves on closer inspection.
 
In the No. 99 colourway, Gilbert pairs a deep inky navy ground with softly soft truffle-brown detailing. Dark and atmospheric, the palette gives the Art Deco pattern a rich, evening quality that works beautifully with walnut, dark timber, aged brass and warm neutral interiors.
 
Printed on 100% linen, this luxury patterned fabric is suitable for curtains, cushions and light upholstery. The natural texture softens the Art Deco design, giving Gilbert a relaxed, tactile finish while retaining clear pattern definition.
