This post is dedicated to red toile, a traditional and timeless classic that, even though it’s popularity ebbs at times, still manages to find it’s way into modern homes. The pattern usually consists of a white or off-white background and a repeated red pattern generally depicting a pastoral theme such as a couple having a picnic and frolicking in the countryside or even a lovely floral design. I have gathered some wonderful examples of how beautifully red toile can be incorporated into interior spaces, but first how about a history l
esson in how this red and cream print set about it’s household domination as far back as the 1700’s. Toiles de Jouy, often shortened to toile (pronounced twall), is that wonderful printed fabric that gives a room an immediate French look. Toile is the french word for linen cloth or canvas and is the creation of Christophe Phillippe Oberkamp of Switzerland. After learning the trade from his father Oberkamp set out for Paris at the age of 20 in 1758. Over a period of a few years he formed a partnership with Jean Baptise Heut and set up a factory for manufacturing printed cotton. The town of Jouy-en-Josas (hence toile de Jouy) was chosen because of the clean water of the Bievre river. In the 1770’s the toile of Jouy grew increasingly popular and the company grew very successful. The pattern portion consists of a single color, most often black, red, or blue. In 1781 the factory was visited by Marie Antoinette and it became supported by the French monarchy in order to compete against the imported fabrics which had all but ruined the French fabric industry. Today, fabric designers take great liberties with those old patterns and print toile patterns on any color that looks good. However red toile is still an iconic fabric and whether you love it or hate it, its popularity shows no sign of waning. myfrenchcountryhome.blogspot.com Stunning red toile like this originated in the 18th century and became popular among the upper class in Britain and France. thisisglamorous.com French style interiors have grown in popularity with emphasis on unique charm and rustic beauty. Red toile fabrics are good choices for this type of interior. Many people think it old fashioned, but red toile has a way of growing on you if used in a way that doesn’t come across as too fussy.
