Introducing our new Marbled Wallpaper Collection
I was awestruck by the luminous colours of the mosaics, glasswork, and Renaissance masterpieces that adorned the city and I loved rediscovering the ancient art of marbled papers used for both book binding and as stand alone artwork. As a result I wanted to create a collection of marbled wallpaper designs that paid homage to the beautiful colours of Venice and through the marbled effect of the designs, also reflected the characteristics of the lagoon waters that weave their way through the city. This is a strong wallpaper collection which has both delicate and bold designs.

A brief History of Marbling paper
Marbled paper originated in Japan around the 12th century and then developed in Turkey in the 15th century where another form of marbling was developed called Ebru or cloud art, which resulted in the most incredible flowing designs. During the 16th and 17th century marbling spread through Europe and was especially used for decorative bookbinding.
