Little Greene Wallpaper Elephant Stripe Bright White
Elephant Stripe - stripe wallpaper by Little Greene
Little Greene celebrates the harmonious historical marriage of colour and wallpaper with its Painted Papers striped wallpaper collection. All ten designs are more than just plain striped wallpaper, as they are based on historical patterns found in various archives, including English Heritage and the Whitworth Art Gallery in Manchester. Traditional printing methods were used in the production of these wallpapers, where paint was originally applied instead of ink - similar to the manufacturing method in previous centuries, which is also the reason for the charming surface texture.
Elephant Stripe - ca. 1850
This wallpaper is similar in proportions and structure to Broad Stripe, except that this version is more complex, as each stripe consists of 42 pinstripes. The result is a look that is more concise and contemporary. Attractive at first glance, it has even more to offer on closer inspection. Because this design is on a smaller scale, printing would have been virtually impossible without the printing roller, which has been around since about 1850.
The stripes run lengthwise. To achieve a corresponding effect as in the room pictures, the strips have to be cut at an angle and attached to each other. Available in six colourways.
