"Furnishing Fabric" is a repeating pattern of fabric designed by Philippe Wyngaert, dating back to the 1820s or 1830s. The pattern consists of a delicate, detailed design of repeating figures within architectural frames, all rendered in shades of red and white. The piece is currently on display at the Art Institute of Chicago, and is a prime example of the intricate designs common in textile art from this period.
