Poppy Trail Wallpaper by Little Greene

This flamboyant floral design featuring large, stylised poppies is a classic example of those in production during the late 19th century. Although the designer is unknown, it is thought that it may have been the work of Arthur L. Gwatkin who produced papers of a very similar feel. This wallpaper was found on the walls of the corridor leading through to the top of the staircase at Felbrigg Hall, as well as a rolled sample in the attic stores.

Coloured in five tonal colourways, each with statement grounds.

Sold per roll.

‘National Trust Papers III’ comprises 45 colourways representing over 200 years of decoration. Each design has been created from original source material found at three of the National Trust’s historic houses, Oxburgh Hall and Felbrigg Hall in Norfolk and Newark Park in Gloucestershire, with the addition of one design that has been recoloured and revived from the Little Greene archive. Employing traditional methods of printing that have remained unchanged for over 100 years, the collection comprises an array of hand-painted birds, stylised florals and scrolling trails, as well as a traditional ‘Toile de Jouy’.
