Victorian decoration

Victorian decoration refers to the elaborate and detailed design style popular during Queen Victoria's reign (1837-1901). It features rich colors, intricate patterns, and an eclectic mix of influences from Gothic, Rococo, and Moorish styles. Common elements include heavy drapery, ornate furnishings, and extensive use of wallpaper with floral or damask patterns. The Victorian era emphasized a sense of opulence, comfort, and personalization, often incorporating sentimental and historical motifs. Homes were adorned with decorative arts, including ceramics and stained glass, reflecting the era's fascination with craftsmanship and social status.
