1 1911 Queen Mary and Sir Charles Allom created the Chinese Chippendale Room, Buckingham Palace. The Queen had a passion for collecting Chinese and oriental objects, particularly jade, and the room is decorated in an eclectic style: with some pieces that originally furnished the Royal Pavilion in Brighton, objects collected by the Queen herself, set alongside two eighteenth century Vile cabinets that are still in the Royal Collection. The wallpaper was specially printed using a pattern from Chinese silk.
