The heritage of this distinguished British textile house weaves a fascinating narrative through the fabric of interior design history. Founded in the early 20th century, the company began as a small family enterprise and has evolved into an international design powerhouse whilst maintaining its core values of quality and innovation.What truly distinguishes this brand is their devotion to the creative process. Each collection begins with hand-drawn sketches or paintings created in their Nottinghamshire design studio. The artistic team draws inspiration from diverse sources—architectural details from grand country houses, botanical specimens preserved in museum archives, or textural elements discovered during global travels. These initial concepts undergo meticulous refinement before being transformed into the exquisite wall coverings that adorn distinguished homes worldwide.
The brand's commitment to craftsmanship is evident in every aspect of production. Unlike mass-manufactured alternatives, these wall coverings incorporate sophisticated printing techniques that capture subtle gradations of colour and intricate details that might otherwise be lost. The result is a product with remarkable depth and character that elevates any interior scheme.
Material selection further demonstrates their uncompromising standards. Only premium substrates are selected, ensuring optimal print quality and longevity. The company's research and development team continuously explores innovative materials that enhance both aesthetic appeal and practical performance—creating wall coverings that maintain their beauty for years while meeting modern expectations for sustainability and durability.

Their versatility allows them to harmonise with diverse design approaches, whether creating a dramatic focal point or providing a sophisticated backdrop for other design elements.
