Forbidden City is Coordonné's chinoiserie collection, drawn with real patience. Birds Prosperity perches a long-tailed bird among flowering branches, Cherry Blossom carries white blossom along fine stems, and Sacred Pheasants fills the cloth with pheasants, peonies and rockwork. Storytelling prints that reward being looked at closely, and considerable things made up into curtains where there is room for the scene to run.
