Description

William Morris utilised the beauty of Acanthus leaves to decorate many of his designs and are made a central feature in his ‘Acanthus’ patterned wallpaper collection. Made popular in Ancient Greek friezes and on the capitals of Corinthian columns, these swirling, curling leaves have decorated homes and walls ever since. Morris believed that this pattern was ideal for smaller rooms, creating a peaceful and restful atmosphere, rather than a smaller denser pattern, which will bring the room inward. Acanthus Plum from William Morris at Home displays the beauty of Morris’ large leafy designs in bold yet soft shades of warm bronzy golds and cool silver-grey tones. The matt finish of this wallpaper encapsulates a classical design, within a modern-style print.

Relaunching in 2024, this collection of William Morris wallpaper comes in a variety of colours and patterns. If you’re looking to try out a variety of wallpapers, order a sample and see first hand how it fits into your home.
