Sarah Rose Cholmondeley (née Hanbury), has been in the news a lot lately for her alleged affair with Prince William. While we can’t speak to the validity of that, we can confirm that the Marchioness of Cholmondeley has impeccable taste and a serious eye for design. Her historic manse in North Norfolk, England, Houghton Hall, is filled with antique furniture, layers of charming textiles, collections of traditional and contemporary art, and acres of beautiful gardens.
Rose Cholmondeley collaborated with Cabana’s Editor-in-Chief Martina Mondadori to create a tabletop collection reminiscent of the original artifacts found at Houghton Hall—and it’s safe to say that we’re obsessed. From inspired by a 18th century hand-painted silk wallcovering found in the estate’s bedroom to and influenced by their antique versions found at Houghton Hall, each object has a strong sense of place and ties back to the home’s incredible history.
The pieces focus on preserving the estate’s storied past while shining a light on quality craftsmanship and artisans. In this collection, you’ll find hand-embroidered by and that honor the lost art of Rebrodè lace embroidery. Our personal favorite pick, however, may be the cheeky made by Florentine silversmiths that’s a replica of the estate’s guest cigarette cases.We love that the pieces from this collection can all be mixed and matched, and each layer tells a story. No matter how you choose to style your tablescape, you’re sure to feel like royalty with these stunning items. Shop the entire collection, below.
