ABOUT CYRUS CLARK
This textile company was founded by Cyrus Clark in 1925 when he returned from WWI military service. For the next 75 years, three generations of the Clark family ran this textile company from their office on 5th Avenue in Manhattan. The company employed artists with a diverse range of aesthetics to create a wide range of conversational textiles for the aspirational mid-century home. They helped to popularize a durable coated fabric called chintz with the slogan “C is for Chintz by Cyrus Clark, for Charm in every room.”
ABOUT LADY EDITH’S ROSES
This print is named for First Lady Edith Roosevelt, who started the national rose garden in 1902. The two flower motifs featured, the Rose and the Morning Glory, are among the most symbolic of all flora. The Rose, of course, is the flower of romance and of Shakespearean fame “A rose by any other name…”. While the Morning Glory, which withers each evening only to bloom again in the morning, is a sign of un-dying or unrequited love.
