Pineapple Garden Archive inspiration: Design for woven silk, James Leman (1688–1745), Spitalfields, London, 1707

The Leman Album, one of the V&A's greatest textile treasures, served as the inspiration for this pineapple pattern. The album has 97 patterns for woven silk fabric that were painted in watercolour. They are Europe’s earliest dated silk designs, created by Huguenot master weaver and designer James Leman. It has been reproduced using the Sur-Flex process, developed in-house at 1838 by combining two traditional techniques: Surface and Flexo printing. Surface printing provides a wonderfully thick ink coverage and hand-painted appearance, and Flexo finely detailed effects.
