There is a world of wit and whimsy ruled by the “Princes of Exuberant Prints” where exotic toiles, splashy florals, and stunning geometrics come together to create a place of “fantasy and far-flung glamour.” It’s a marvelous world of pattern, created by the gents of Madcap Cottage, in collaboration with Robert Allen @ Home. Dubbed “A Collector’s Eye,” this new offering to the line stems from where the first assortment left off and is designed to carry the customer willingly “to lands far afield” while channeling “the road less traveled.” A road that ultimately leads to a well-designed home.

The collection is robust providing an opportunity for all to create their own world of whimsical sophistication by playing with a variety of color, scale, and prints and mixing them in unexpected and delightful ways.
