The end of World War I was experienced by a great number of people as a decisive break with the past. The industrial boom that occurred, first in the United States and later also in Europe, brought with it a critical change in lifestyle. Whether they were called the ‘Roaring Twenties’, the ‘Jazz Age’ or the ‘années folles’, the 1920s were a celebration of amusement, lightness, and fun. Fancy Designs 1920 provides a collection of the gay, flowery, frivolous designs of this era, taken from period wallpapers and fabrics.

Fancy Designs 1920 is part of a series that covers the decorative styles prevalent in Europe since the beginning of the Western calendar.
