Inspired by sections of historic early 19th century panels by Velay and Zuber, this exotic, handpainted design has been beautifully reproduced in 4 stunning colour stories. Capricorn adds interest to the wall with its scenic appeal enriched with birds and monkeys hidden amongst the palm leaves.

Burges Butterfly
Add an air of old world charm to the home with the beautiful Little Greene Burges Butterfly wallpaper.

Baring resemblance to his Burges Snail wallpaper design, Burges Butterfly is another playful addition found at Knightshayes Court, Devon (c.1878) and has been reproduced via surface printing for original texture and authenticity. Available in 5 contemporary colour ways, this wallpaper will add character and personality to your room scheme.

Ditsy Block
The Ditsy Block wallpaper is an interesting addition to the Little Greene National Trust Papers IV collection, in terms of its historical design and location. An ornate floral lattice print discovered in the attic room (believed to have been a former staff room) at Feblbrigg Hall, Norfolk, Ditsy Block has been faithfully reproduced in 6 colour variations, each surface printed to reflect its origins. Use this small scale design on a single wall, or go bold and wallpaper the walls and ceilings for an enveloping effect (see image opposite).
