A small open tulip in near-black blue on warm ivory, scattered across an open four-inch repeat. The indigo is dark enough that the silhouette closes fully and the shape holds from across a room. The edge stays soft, but the contrast is high enough that the pattern reads as graphic.
The design was translated from drawing 4608 in a volume of French textile designs held at the Clark Art Institute Library. The drawing is a watercolour record of a printed cloth, not a piece of fabric. The motif is small and the scatter is open, so the pattern holds its place beside a larger design rather than competing with it. Available as wallpaper and fabric by the yard.

The Source
Drawing 4608 comes from a volume of nineteenth-century French textile designs with no title page and no publisher named. The drawings are mounted watercolours, each on its own sheet. This one is worked in a single colour, with a numbered list of twelve colours written down the right margin in ink — nine for the motif and two for the ground, in the same hand that numbered the page.
A label inside the front cover identifies the firm as Maison Robert, with Victor Ducroquet listed as son-in-law and successor. The label gives an address in Paris and names the firm as a depot for papers made by another manufacturer. Two medals on the label are dated 1844. The library catalogues the volume to about 1863.
The volume is part of the Mary Ann Beinecke Decorative Art Collection at the Clark Art Institute Library, a collection of over 1,200 volumes on textiles and decorative art assembled by the weaver and textile artist Mary Ann Beinecke. The small floral motif and open scatter hold their place beside a larger design rather than competing with it.

The Wallpaper
Peel and Stick
A self-adhesive paper with a linen-like texture. The texture shows through the print and gives the color a quiet movement, most noticeable across a full wall. It goes up without paste and comes down more easily when the room is ready for something new.
- Install: Peel and stick, no paste
- Walls: Smooth, clean, fully cured paint
- For: Rentals and rooms where paste-free installation or easier removal matters
Clay-Coated
A traditional unpasted paper with a smooth, soft matte finish. Color sits cleanly on the clay surface, so the finest lines of the pattern stay sharp. It gives a room the familiar finish of traditionally hung wallpaper.
- Install: Unpasted; paste is applied to the back of each panel before hanging
- For: Traditional installations, including full rooms and powder rooms away from direct water
Start with a sample. Tape it to the wall and live with it for a few days, in morning light and again in the evening. Watch how the color and surface settle into the room, then choose the paper you'll live with.
