Pineapples are more than just a pretty fruit. They are a design element with quite a long history! First grown in South America, they were actually discovered by Christopher Columbus in the Caribbean Islands. He was so impressed with the delicious, sweet fruit that he took some back to Europe where they become a symbol of prosperity. As a result the image of the pineapple also became a symbol of welcome and hospitality.
Later, when the colonists in America began importing the pineapple, it was seen as quite a coup to procure because they had to be carried by ship from the islands. Eventually, this lovely fruit became a symbol of hospitality with it often being used as the focus in a centerpiece. As its symbolism became embedded in the culture, the pineapple started being used as a decorative embellishment. It was carved into bedsteads, used on linens, napkins, basically anything in the home that might be associated with being a great host.
It’s no wonder we’re still obsessed with the pineapple as a design element. And we’ve found nine great rooms that use the pineapple in their design schemes. Keep reading to see all of these sweet and juicy ideas!
