Thistle Sample

Bring the elegance of the Arts & Crafts movement into your home with Thistle, a meticulously recreated wallpaper design originally crafted by renowned British textile designer John Henry Dearle in the late 1800s. Dearle—protégé and eventual lead designer for Morris & Co.—was celebrated for his rhythmic botanical motifs, and Thistle stands among his most sophisticated works.

This revival preserves every detail of Dearle’s original vision: intertwining thistle blooms, swirling acanthus-like foliage, and the harmonious flow characteristic of hand-drawn block-printed patterns of the era. Printed with modern precision, the design maintains the authenticity of its heritage while offering a fresh, contemporary versatility.

Available in a curated palette—from soft, atmospheric tones to rich, dramatic hues—Thistle complements interiors ranging from traditional Victorian homes to clean modern spaces seeking an artisanal touch.
