Exotic Bedding

Robshawbirds.jpg

About two years ago the Indian-look hit like a monsoon and then dried up for everyone–except John Robshaw. He has reinvented the Indian paisley, the color scheme, and the block print. The palette is no longer the Indian look; it is the John Robshaw look. His fall collection is absolutely exquisite, but if I could pick one thing to swoon over, it would be the Birds of India pillows. No matter what happens to the bird trend, these will be timeless. The birds are hand painted on linen and, as the catalog says, “So life-like, you might want to feed them.”
