Anna Weatherley
As an international designer, Anna Weatherley's career has included
designing and manufacturing couture fashion, jewelry, home furnishings, and
printed textiles. In the early 1990's she established a studio in Budapest,
Hungary where she trained a group of highly talented painters to create her
collection of hand-painted porcelain.
Hand-painted porcelain has a long tradition in Hungary going back almost two
centuries. The artisans in Anna Weatherley's studio are trained in the
classical painting tradition. Only the best painters are capable of mixing
the colors and painting the delicate details of her designs. Each piece is
not merely a pretty painted object, but also a work of art. Although her
painters are trained in the traditional style, Anna Weatherley's designs are
not classical porcelain patterns. Her designs are inspired by the early
botanical illustrators and flower painters of the 18th Century Europe such
as Redoute, Hooker, and Ehret. Dutch still-life paintings have also been a
source of design inspiration. Ms. Weatherley's porcelain tulip collection is
based on the work of Alexander Marshal whose rare paintings are preserved in
the Royal Library of Windsor Castle.
Due to the Handpainting of each piece, there may be variations from the
picture.
