Tiburon Shagreen

The skin of Hypolophus sephen, the formidable sting ray, with its closely packed round beads of calcified nodes, clad Jean-Michel Frank's legendary, richly embellished art deco objets d'art. Evans & Brown use the same technique to create a very naturalistic, yet sumptuous pattern that perfectly mimics the stingray's skin right down to its spine. The result is a highly original wallcovering that combines the best of nature with the sleek sophistication of Jean-Michel Frank.
