Wallpaper Carlisle Fauna

Wallpaper Carlisle Fauna by English Heritage belongs to the Heritage Wallpaper collection.

A multi coloured block print style design featuring flowers and leaves in all-over form. Traditionally surface printed onto a heavyweight non-woven ground for ease of hanging. In five versatile colourways from soft to rich and dark tones- coordinating fabric also available. The original wallpaper fragment was in a single tonal colour block print in a panelled form edged with vertical stripes. The team at Designers Guild re-worked this as an all-over pattern in multi colour tones to create a more versatile design. Removed in 1990 from No.17 Carlisle Street in London's Soho district built in 1765 - the name came from the mansion built in the mid 1680's which was occupied by the Countess of Carlisle. No.17 Carlisle Street still exists today as one of the largest houses in the area and the exterior and interior still retain many original features.
