Liberty - Arthur's Garden - Garden Retreat 301A

Arthur's Garden

Inspired by Liberty founder, Arthur Lasenby Liberty’s very own Japanese garden, we invite you to step inside this beautiful botanical retreat, filled with plants brought home from travels afar. In the1890s, Arthur Lasenby Liberty and his wife Emma bought the lee manor in the historic British county of Buckinghamshire and decorated it with a carefully curated collection of objects d’art from around the world. Following a trip to Japan in 1889, the couple fell in love with the country’s unparalleled artisanship, creative heritage, and natural beauty – so much so, that the young Arthur Liberty was inspired to recreate a Japanese garden of his very own, complete with a lily pond, bamboo trees, and even Japanese zen rocks. Liberty Fabrics’ designers have drawn inspiration from Arthur’s Garden and the bloom laden trellises, tumbling blossoms, and ancient gingko trees that made his garden so special. Unwind amongst charming chrysanthemums, marvellous dahlias in full bloom, and see cascading waterfalls passing by blossoming cherry trees. Arthur’s Garden is a tranquil retreat for everyone to enjoy.
