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.
Who doesn't love a silhouette? This is a new series for John Derian and we just fell in love with the vintage, quirkiness about the look. Each piece is definitely going to spark conversation! We selected two women (Angela, Gladys) and two men (Benjamin and Jack); it is so easy to create stories about each one. We think they would be divine all hung together in an entryway, staircase or a den! But they also make a lovely gift individually. Jack especially stands on his own with his sea captain look-he's perfect for the sailor in your life!
