John Derian has taken the art of decoupage to new heights. Decoupage is simply the art of cutting and gluing paper to surfaces. His designs are anything but simple. They are beautiful and elegant, yet fresh and witty. He has been collecting vintage images of fruit, flowers, animals, and shells for decades. He also hand paints borders over ledgers and letters that are over 100 years old. He uses his art to decoupage plates, trays, coasters, paper weights and table top items. His designs make very special gifts that can be used as a holders for letters, stamps and coins or beautifully displayed on a wall or bookshelf. At Orange and Pear, we love designers that transcend trends. John Derian's designs are timeless and look fabulous in modern and old homes. Find a design that you think your recipient will respond to or pick an image that "speaks" to you.

Paperweights make such a great gift and John Derian makes some beautiful ones. Almost everyone has a stack of papers in the house that can look more elegant topped with a decoupage paperweight! The Love paperweight reminds us of what it's all about!
