c.1885. discovered on the walls of the Billiard Room at Stokesay Court, Shropshire — the magnificent Victorian century mansion where "Atonement" was filmed — this wallcovering reflects the nineteenth century fascination with chinoiserie. Although undoubtedly Chinese in its inspiration, Amicia's foliage looks like an English hedgerow, as engraved wildflowers and snarled greenery tangle together forming a thicket straight from Sleeping Beauty.

Bringing together traditional methods, an archive of historical designs, and a range of contemporary colours, our hand-blocked wallpapers are a sumptuous statement for any room.
We use the original handmade pear wood blocks and rollers to produce our papers the traditional way. We have a wide range of designs with a variety of scales and styles, along with the skilled ability to produce rolls in any colour to transform the distinctive into the truly unique.
When our designs were first drawn for the block makers in Watts’ early years they would have been coloured specifically for each job. Today we can offer a wide range of colours but we take great care to use a palette that is true to our design roots.
Using traditional materials helps as part of today’s drive to create sustainable buildings but best of all it ensures that the printed surface avoids the plastic monotony of alkyd and acrylic paints.
