Clarence House is considered the foremost style-setter in the decorative fabric industry and is the first choice of many of the world's top interior designers.

 

 

The company was founded in 1961 by New York interior designer Robin Roberts on the premise that design integrity was a goal that could be achieved through uncompromising artistry and technical quality. Eventually, Clarence House became involved in every aspect of the creative process, with its own design studio and in-house art director Kazumi Yoshida. Yoshida, with a vast network of European mills and textile archives at his disposal, still controls the evolution of each design from the initial concept to the finished product.

 

 

Through the years, Clarence House has supplied the furnishing fabrics for pre-eminent museums and countless historic houses and has been consistently featured in every important design and architectural magazine. Famous for its handscreen printing of fabrics and wallpapers, high-style textures and hand-loomed brocades, Clarence House also offers the highest quality velvets, damasks, silks, cottons, linens, sheers, trimmings and leathers.

 

 

 

Printed Fabrics

Clarence House is known worldwide for its prints. Many patterns are inspired by the finest textile designs from the 17th, 18th and 19th centuries and the first half of the 20th century.

 

Clarence House offers luxurious velvets, high-style jacquards, tapestries, boucles, chenilles, horsehairs, matelasses, textured plains and stripes, wools, plaids and checks. Many meet the stringent requirements of the contract and hospitality market, and most are adaptable to the special needs of contract designers.

 

Wallpapers

Clarence House offers a vast collection of European and domestic wallpapers, which include floral prints, Chinoiserie, damask patterns, toile de jouy, architectural motifs, juveniles, novelty designs, plains, stripes, foils and borders.

 

Leathers

Clarence House imports the most luxurious, butter-soft leathers and suedes in the world. Produced in Italy and aniline-dyed, they are available in a multitude of rich colours.

 

Sheers

Clarence House provides an extensive selection of sheers, casements and laces. Woven in silk, cotton, linen, wool and blends thereof, a full range of designs are offered. Many are woven extra wide to avoid seaming. Handmade laces are an integral part of the collection and provide a soft, beautiful finish to any traditional setting.

 

From the most elaborate silk tie-back to the simplest cotton gimp, Clarence House offers a wide variety of decorative trimmings in silk, cotton, linen and wool.
