Fashion and home brand Anthropologie is stocking an exclusive 32-piece collection of soft furnishing and decorative home items designed by artist Ellen Merchant.
Merchant, a decorative artist, designer and printmaker, harbours a love for antique textiles and botanical motifs, which she channels into original patterns and hand-drawn prints, produced using traditional craft skills, such as linocut and block printing.


The colourful designs are part of Anthropologie’s Spring/Summer collection, featuring a kaleidoscopic range of shades of pink, yellow, green and blue, and illustrating natural forms and geometric patterns that appear to draw inspiration from spring’s bounty and sun-drenched days.
The collection features wallpaper designs, kitchenware, including plates, pitchers, bowls and serving sets, as well as soft furnishings, ranging from pillows and sheet sets to a plush, hand-tufted rug.
