A match made in heaven! Liberty prints come to Anthropologie
Hip high-street store Anthropologie has delved in the Liberty archive, using its iconic heritage prints on a new range of home accessories
As big fans of all things Liberty, we were delighted when we heard about an exciting collaboration with one of our favourite shops for quirky home finds – Anthropologie. The new collection features 16 iconic Liberty Fabrics adorning furniture, dinner and servingware, kitchen textiles and home accessories.
The project was initiated and led by Anthropologie's Andrew Carnie – President of Home, Garden and Europe. 'Like anyone who is passionate about design, I have always revered Liberty Fabrics as the very epitome of classic British style,' he says. 'I've been continually amazed by its constant reinvention, which has seen the brand remain fresh and relevant for well over a century.'

The furniture pieces are probably the most wow of the new collection. Handcrafted in the UK by a family-run furniture maker, the pieces retain the heritage feel of Liberty's British roots. The elegant sofa above is upholstered in the reworked Feather Fan fabric – the geometric feather design has been supersized especially for this collaboration.
