Love this York wallpaper also from Wayfair. It would be great with Benjamin Moore Cream Froth for trim or used in wall panels and blush upholstery. All the background colors have a beautiful color palette.
Classic Chintz
“Chintz was originally a woodblock printed, painted or stained calico produced in India from 1600 to 1800 and popular for bed covers, quilts and draperies. Around 1600, Portuguese and Dutch traders were bringing examples of Indian chintz into Europe on a small scale, but the English and French merchants began sending large quantities. By 1680 more than a million pieces of chintz were being imported into England per year, and a similar quantity was going to France and the Dutch Republic. These early imports were probably mostly used for curtains, furnishing fabrics, and bed hangings and covers.” Wikipedia excerpt

“With imported chintz becoming so popular with Europeans during the late 17th century, French and English mills grew concerned, as they could not make chintz. In 1686 the French declared a ban on all chintz imports. In 1720 England’s Parliament enacted a law that forbade “the Use and Warnings in Apparel of imported chintz, and also its use or wear in or about any Bed, Chair, Cushion or other Household furniture”. Wikepedia excerpt
It has been suggested that wearing them as clothes began when they were given to maidservants, who made them into dresses, and also that they were first worn as linings.”

Even though chintz was outlawed, there were loopholes in the legislation. The Court of Versailles was outside the law and fashionable young courtiers continued wearing chintz.
