1797 Brita Sophia

Skokloster Floral Print, c. 1760–1780

This delicate floral design originates from Skokloster Castle in Sweden, where the original fabric adorns both canopy curtains and upholstered chairs. The pattern reflects the refined elegance of mid-18th-century French indienne cottons, later imported and cherished in Nordic interiors.

Set against a pale blue, finely striped background, scattered bouquets of roses, berries, and butterflies unfold in tones of red, blue, and beige. The light rhythm of the print captures the Rococo spirit — airy, natural, and full of movement — while the color harmony anticipates the calm of the Gustavian era.

Inspired by the preserved Skokloster textiles, this reproduction re-imagines the historical design with fresh precision, bringing 18th-century grace into modern interiors.
