Little Greene Stag Trail Wallpaper - Sterling

This classic Georgian design can be seen at Greyfriars, a medieval timber-framed house in Worcester. The 20th-century owner of the property, Elsie Moore, acquired some unused rolls from the attic of a rectory in nearby Pershore and displayed sections of them as framed panels in her bright yellow dining room. Suspecting that the turquoise pigment in the soil might be arsenic, she covered the panels with plain brown paper to prevent herself or her guests from inadvertently poisoning themselves. The holes made by the pins she used can still be seen today, but the paper is, thankfully, (safely) back on display. The scale of the original pattern has been reduced for ease of use, while the four colours include a nod to the original, a traditional interpretation and more contemporary options.
