The Upper Drawing Room of Pitzhanger Manor is home to a beautifully detailed wallpaper design. Soane originally gifted his wife, Eliza, this bespoke wallpaper which was inspired by hand-painted Chinese artwork. After the major restoration project which saw Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery reopen to the public in 2019, the wallpaper was restored to its former glory through a lengthy process of hand painting details such as these affectionate birds.

Visit Pitzhanger Manor & Gallery and see what other details you can spot in this incredibly intricate design 🦋

Still struggling for gift ideas this year? 🫣

Don’t worry, we’ve got you covered. These vases by @miyukurihara were commissioned as part of the #ArtistsforPitzhanger series. Kurihara was invited to create a limited edition collection that responds to spaces around the house, from Soane’s coloured glass to the Chinese wallpaper in the Upper Drawing Room.

Handmade, painted and glazed in her London studio, each piece is beautifully unique whilst exemplifying Kurihara’s outstanding craftsmanship and attention to detail. 

These vases make the perfect Christmas gift for the design fanatic in your life, for the person who simply has everything, or even for yourself (not necessarily mutually exclusive).

But hurry, as we have *very* limited stock remaining. Our gallery shop is open Wednesday - Sunday until December 23rd. 

Every purchase supports the upkeep of our historic site and our exciting programme of exhibitions.
