Ramayana takes its name from the Indian epic and is printed at a large, mural-like scale on paper, the 91.5 by 68.5 centimetre repeat giving the design room to unfold as a scene rather than a repeating motif you would ever catch resetting. It is one of the more elaborate, narrative prints in the Signature II collection, and reads as a single decorative composition rather than a conventional all-over pattern.
This is a printed paper wallpaper, 68.5 centimetres wide, with a 91.5 centimetre vertical and 68.5 centimetre horizontal repeat. Four colourways: Sage/Multi and Emerald keep the design in a garden-toned palette, Blue gives it a single cooler ground, and Woodsmoke is the most muted, smoky option of the four, best suited to a room lit mostly by lamps.
We would hang it in a formal dining room or a generous hallway, somewhere the scale of the repeat and the narrative detail can be appreciated across a full wall, rather than in a small room where the pattern would be cut awkwardly. Keep the rest of the room's fabrics plain so the paper remains the single decorative statement. Sold by the roll; order a sample before committing to a full room, given how much the four colourways change its character.
Plan the drops carefully before cutting, since a 91.5 centimetre repeat wastes more paper than a small print if the layout is not thought through in advance; brief your decorator to centre the design on the principal wall. Roll length is not given on this listing, so check the label before ordering; as a rule of thumb, a repeat this large means allowing five or more rolls for an average wall.
