You'll find Victorian damask, baroque ornament, Art Nouveau line, and grand-millennial florals here, with more period styles like toile and chintz joining as the collection grows. Ornate, considered, and unmistakably traditional, but never stuffy.
Where historical wallpaper works
Historical wallpaper suits rooms that can carry a bit of grandeur. A dining room that leans into candlelight and conversation. A hallway you want to feel like an arrival rather than a corridor. A bedroom feature wall with the kind of richness that makes a room feel finished. The more ornamental designs reward rooms with good ceiling height and period features, though they sit just as well softening a plain modern box.
Most people use historical wallpaper on a single feature wall and let the detail do the work, though the quieter damasks and ornaments are calm enough to wrap a whole room. It pairs naturally with dark painted woodwork, antique brass, and considered, traditional colour schemes.
Colours, rich and period-inspired
Colour is where historical wallpaper shows its range. The deeper, more dramatic colourways lean into the period mood: inky blues, oxblood, forest green, and the soft golds that suit damask and baroque ornament. If you'd rather something lighter, the same patterns in stone, sage, and muted neutrals give you all the heritage detail with a calmer, more contemporary feel, which is where the grand-millennial look really comes into its own.
If a design is right but the colour isn't quite, just ask. Free colour customisation means you can match a tone to your paint or your scheme before anything is printed, so the historical wallpaper suits the room you've already got.
Made to order
Each design is printed to order on quality wallpaper using eco-friendly materials, available in Peel & Stick, Traditional (Non-Pasted), and Pre-Pasted. The pre-pasted option suits the more textural, traditional patterns well if you want a classic finish. Every pattern is original artwork, hand-drawn by Sara at Summer Skye Studio, UK, so this is historical wallpaper you won't see repeated in three other houses down the road.
If you're covering more than one wall, order all your rolls in the same batch so the colour stays consistent across the print run.
Not sure which period suits your space? Order a sample first. Screens never quite tell the truth about colour and detail, and a sample on the wall is the simplest way to be sure before you commit.
