Jennifer Shorto founded her fabric and wallpaper company in 2013, drawing inspiration from her extensive antique textiles collection, ranging from 17th-century French brocade to West African strip-woven cloths. Her fabrics – silks, cottons, and linens – are woven in the UK and printed in France and Italy, blending handmade traditions with contemporary designs to keep their spirit alive.
The wallpapers are born of fantasy and the spirit of adventure. They speak of 18th-century voyages of discovery, jungle scenes à la Henri Rousseau, and meteorite showers. Printed on wide-width, high-quality paper in the UK, Jennifer and her studio harness sophisticated digital technology to achieve a result that recalls the painterly quality of old techniques.
Her work has been featured in publications including The World of Interiors, Vogue Living, US Vogue, AD and Elle Déco.
