Perhaps William Morris’s most recognizable design, Strawberry Thief, was inspired by the thrushes that crept under Morris’s strawberry nets in his garden at Kelmscott Manor, Oxfordshire. The original pattern took several days to print using hand-carved woodblocks to build up the different colors, and ‘Strawberry Thief’ was consequently one of Morris’s firm’s most expensive cottons. While waiting to see the first piece printed, Morris endured sleepless nights in his lodgings at Merton Abbey. Designed in 1883, Strawberry Thief remains one of William Morris’s most popular and iconic designs. Strawberry Thief Deep Blue provides a depth of rich color featuring hues of muted red, teal and dark blue, partnered with pops of lighter tones to accentuate the detail within the design. This matte finish wallpaper invites the outdoors in, in a complementing and easy on the eye manner.

Marigold was designed by William Morris and registered as a wallpaper in 1875. The pattern incorporates larger marigold flowers amongst sprays of willow-like leaves in a sub-pattern of smaller foliage and flowers. The monochrome pattern was produced in a wide variety of colorways. Morris also registered the design as printed cotton later in 1875, one of only three designs Morris specifically intended to be produced as both a textile and a wallpaper. Marigold fibrous green perfectly showcases Morris’ famous design with a full black metallic print on a gorgeous deep green, textured background. This luxurious design adds an eye-catching element to this duo-toned wallpaper, making it the perfect choice for a sophisticated feel.

Beautiful, high quality wall paper that was easy to apply. I was also able to order another roll when I wanted more and it arrived quickly! Would definitely recommend. Sydney. Boston, MA. Fri Mar 21 2025

A beautiful and dynamic Morris design featuring perching and swooping birds against a network of foliage and an abundance of ripe pomegranates – some whole, some bursting open, and others getting pecked at by diving birds. The inspiration for this piece was William Morris’s much earlier pattern, ‘Fruit’, which similarly depicts luscious pomegranates amongst branches, leaves, and blooming pomegranate flowers. With nature as the focus, this vibrant and whimsical design is a fine exemplar of Morris’s characteristic style. Bird and Pomegranate Deep Green is a beautiful, statement design with its vivid richness in color. Displaying pops of muted terracotta, rosy pink, and cream against a multi-tonal sea of green. This matte-finish wallpaper would be an eye catching asset to any room.

This wallpaper was exactly as pictured and we love it! The texture is soft and feels high quality.. Amanda. Mesa, AZ. Fri Nov 15 2024

This hand block printed design features large sensual tulips and their curling leaves, intwined with foliage and small pimpernel flowers. The pattern is a wonderful example of William Morris’ sense of humour since on initial inspection your eye is drawn towards the dominating, graphic tulip heads and yet the name of the design is attributed to the secondary floral detail; the smaller Pimpernel flower. Pimpernel Spring Breeze displays a depth of detail through its multi-tonal palette of sage hues, subtly accentuated by notes of blush pink represented in the flowers featured weaving throughout and finally brought to life by a rich gold feature colour. This wallpaper comes in a matt finish, adding a contemporary feel to a classical design.

Created from the original design drawing in the William Morris Gallery archive, this design was intended for woven double cloth and features a motif of leaves, stems, rose sprays, acorns, and doves. Dove & Rose Haze wallpaper features a harmonious blend of nature’s elements, with bold, oversized leaves, with pops. Found alongside flowing vines of pale blue and peach, extending from beautifully iconic Morris flowers, creating the perfect perching area for couples of intricately designed doves in shared tones, all laid upon a white backdrop, creating any overall soft pastel design that envokes tranquility, elegance, and timeless beauty.

Absolutely stunning! Was easy to install. I had never installed a wallpaper that required adhesive on the wall, but it was so easy with this wall paper! Smoothed out like a dream! And it’sgorgeous! Highly recommend!. Anonymous. Lubbock, TX. Tue Jul 28 2026

Acanthus leaves decorate many of Morris’s designs and are made a central feature in his ‘Acanthus’ pattern for wallpaper. First used in Ancient Greek friezes and on the capitals of Corinthian columns, these swirling, curling leaves have decorated walls and buildings ever since. Morris found this classical motif ideal for repeating patterns and believed the large pattern he created here was perfect for smaller rooms, creating a more restful atmosphere than a smaller, dense pattern. Acanthus Blue from William Morris displays the beauty of Morris’ large leafy designs in calming yet engaging deep blue and teal tones. The matte paper finish of this wallpaper accentuates the fusion of classical and contemporary.

Just received this fabulous wallpaper. It’s so beautiful in person. Will be a great update to my hall. Will send pictures when able. Chris. Atlanta, GA. Tue Dec 09 2025

A beautiful, monotone wallpaper featuring a pared-back representation of acorn branches, originally designed in 1879. The artwork was created using the original wooden Morris & Co. hand printing blocks and is now printed in wintery colorways.

So I want to say we have not put up the wallpaper yet but I don't think I need to before reviewing.

Although Morris regularly used birds in his designs, Brother Rabbit is his only repeating pattern to feature an animal. Designed in 1882, the design was originally created using wood blocks, which are now in the collection of the William Morris Gallery. Morris’s skilled team of printers would use up to 25 blocks per design in order to create his dense patterns. Brother Rabbit wallpaper features beautifully entwined leaves and trees in cream and deep mustard yellow, with accents of light blush pink. Then hidden within the foliage, you will be able to find birds and brother rabbit, beautifully coloured in that same cream tone, found under multi-tonal leaves, all laid upon a deep background. Perfect for creating a fresh and welcoming feel within any home.
