Screens and scrolls have been part of Asian interiors for thousands of years. When Quing Dynasty (1644-1911) furniture and textiles found their way to Europe, a new movement — Chinoiserie — was born in the 17th century. Ornate and delicate Chinese hand painted wallpapers became hugely popular. Fast-forward to 2003, when Milanese architect Chiara Enrico moved to Beijing and Shanghai to explore opportunities there. One of the results of this exploration is MISHA handmade wallpapers, a Milan-based company that selects, produces and distributes hand-painted silk wallpapers. Ancient tradition meets current Western sensitivities exquisitely in the China Classic collection. The China Graphic collection will be launched at the Rosanna Samaritani Interni showroom in Milan during the Fuorisalone, April 16-21, 2008. By Tuija Seipell
