William Morris Willow Bough Wallpaper

This iconic pattern forms part of The Gallery’s collection of earlier printed chintz and wallpaper lengths. The design is based on the natural willow form, which was one of William Morris’ favorite motifs. Originally designed by William Morris as a wallpaper in 1887 and adapted for fabric in 1895, it is block printed in a diagonal branch pattern at Merton Abbey and combines abstraction with a gentle reminder of the outdoors. Willow Bough Charcoal carries an understated charm; the beautiful trailing leaves are created with pastel golds and cream-toned beiges laid upon a charcoal background, adding a subtle depth to any room. This wallpaper also comes in a matte finish to give this well-loved design a contemporary spin.
