Traditional marbled papers added color to the interiors of antique books. Swarm uses this marbling method, in which their unique designs are created by dipping layers of ink onto canvas to make vibrant cushions and zippered pouches. Have a whirl here.
We are delighted to announce that our spring 2026 decoupage collection is here. From a batch of beetle coasters to oval and octagonal floral plates to trays featuring 18th-century botanical prints by William Curtis, springtime is in bloom.
This month, we feature The Rabbit—Lepus cuniculus, engraved by Josiah Wood Whymper from Zoological Sketches. Our little friend appears on John’s designs of postcards, platters, and trays.
Lavenham and John Derian have come together for a second collaboration featuring classic Lavenham silhouettes embroidered with 18th- and 19th-century imagery from John's archive.
This year marks the 30th anniversary of John’s first shop in New York. A few years after starting his one-man decoupage design business in Boston, he moved to New York in the early 1990s. As orders increased, he hired a team of artisans to craft his motifs and opened his first shop in 1995 on 2nd Street in the East Village... a quiet block that would soon become his creative hub.
