National Trust Papers II
Four Centuries of Pattern, Reimagined
Seven designs spanning 400 years, drawn from block-printed papers, a leather wall-hanging, and even a 15th-century tapestry. This collection leans into Georgian and Victorian wallpaper styles, making it a strong pick for traditional interiors, period homes, and anyone searching for antique-inspired wallpaper with real provenance. Sources range from a country house in Lincolnshire to the oldest tapestry in National Trust care, translated into contemporary colorways that work in both formal and relaxed rooms. As a Little Greene stockist, Heritage Home Supply offers the full National Trust Papers II lineup for Chicago homeowners who want historic pattern with a livable, modern palette.
Massingberd Blossom
Trailing blossom and repeating birds in an Edwardian chinoiserie style, from Gunby Hall in Lincolnshire. Available in seven colorways, it captures the era's fascination with oriental design while staying rooted in traditional surface printing. A refined pick for a bedroom or sitting room.
Mandalay
A tree of life pattern drawn from leather wallcoverings at Bateman's, once home to Rudyard Kipling. Sinuous flowering branches with birds nestled among them give it real depth. Offered in four colorways on a wide roll, printed to repeat continuously along the wall.
Tulip
Scrolling foliage with graded color, based on an 1898 paper found at Erddig. The gradient shading was unusual for its time and still gives the leaves a sense of movement today. Available in seven colorways, from powder blue to a striking blue black.
Beech Nut
A late Georgian leaf and nut motif uncovered at Oxburgh Hall. The original was a subdued grey block print; the six modern colorways are considerably bolder while keeping the same balanced palette. A good fit for a kitchen or breakfast nook.
Burges Snail
A quirky daisy and snail design by architect William Burges, found in a bathroom at Knightshayes Court. Burges was known for extravagant, unconventional Victorian interiors, and this playful print reflects that spirit. Available in seven colorways, it's a favorite for powder rooms and bathrooms.
Millefleur
Tiny scattered florals drawn from the National Trust's oldest tapestry, a 15th-century piece at Montacute House. The dense, dark-ground floral detail gives it a rich, layered look. Offered in four colorways for anyone wanting a wallpaper with serious historical depth.
Moy
A loose geometric pattern painted in diluted watercolors, from The Argory in Northern Ireland. The slightly broken, shadowed effect of the original watercolor gives this design more life than a typical flat geometric print. Available in seven colorways.
