Wes Anderson | British Pullman Collaboration
Grosvenor Wilton were appointed to supply carpets for the British Pullman, A Belmond Train’s exclusive collaboration with film director Wes Anderson who has masterfully reimagined the design of their Cygnus carriage.
The bespoke wilton carpets were woven by our highly skilled weavers in Kidderminster and perfectly complement the art deco inspired interior.
Cygnus—a carriage built in the 1950s—has its fair share of cinematic history, featuring in the 1972 film Agatha starring Dustin Hoffman and Vanessa Redgrave. It is one of eleven on the British Pullman, whose carriages have hosted royalty, carried statesmen and survived World War II bomb raids over the years.
