Du Barry Pattern
This pattern was first produced in the early 20th century for use in the first class dining rooms aboard the Titanic. Its inspiration comes from the designs of the most important furniture maker of the 18th century – Thomas Chippendale. It has a simple elegance that successfully treads the line between stylish and plain.
