Compagnie des indes II wallpaper collection Braquenie

Compagnie des indes II wallpaper by Braquenie: chinoiserie and plain silk

The Compagnie des indes II wallpaper brings oriental scenes to your wall, painted as if they came straight from an old archive. In the images you see floral vines climbing diagonally across a light green background, child figures walking over arched bridges and a plain copper-brown surface with a fine horizontal fibre. Each background shows its texture, from stained paper to a woven ground. In the photos, rattan, bamboo, marble and brass are shown alongside, which suits these colours well. Here you choose between a narrative scene and a calm wall without a pattern.

Patterns in the Compagnie des indes II wallpaper collection

Le paravent chinois wallpaper shows large peony-like flowers in pink and cream, lotus flowers, buds and an orange fruit on green vines. The cracks and patina have been deliberately kept in the design. In the Shaolin wallpaper, child figures in pink, red and green robes play on bridges, in a pavilion and in a little boat, among pines and rocks. Les rizieres de shangbao wallpaper also tells a story: an oriental landscape full of buildings and figures. Konotori wallpaper goes back to a Japanese motif and L'odissi wallpaper to a chaîne print, both printed on silk. If you're not looking for a pattern, look at the Shiva wallpaper, plain raw silk in 27 colours, here in copper brown. Or choose the Zia wallpaper, silk in twelve sparkling shades.

Combining Braquenie wallpaper in your interior

With Braquenie wallpaper from this range you first decide what role the wall plays. A floral vine or a scene with bridges calls for calm around it, such as a rattan table or a bamboo cabinet. The plain silk, by contrast, works as a background for an armchair and a brass lamp. You can also combine the two, as in the photo of Shaolin: a scene above, a floral pattern below, separated by a gilded frame. This way you use Compagnie des indes II by Braquenie in layers.
