Osborne & Little | Fernery

Fernery is a stylised fern damask, the fronds arranged into the symmetrical, mirrored form that damasks have kept for centuries. Botanical subject, formal structure: the fern lends softness and the damask lends order, and neither quite wins, which is the design's charm.

Damasks give walls a stately rhythm, and rendering one in fern fronds makes it easier company than the traditional kind. It suits dining rooms, halls, bedrooms and sitting rooms, and the paper is wipeable, which extends it happily into harder-working spaces. Made in the United Kingdom.
