Spiky, entwined stems form dense vertical channels through Marguerite, holding repeating floral heads and delicate nodding sprigs in a structured, architectural stripe. Sourced from a c. 1904 linen damask finger towel (vingerdoek) in the Rijksmuseum, the design translates a square table-linen border into a continuous vertical repeat—letting the thorny graphic vine carry a room's height while small isolated sprigs dot the open ground between columns.

The Source
Linen manufacturers at the turn of the twentieth century actively recruited decorative artists to elevate industrial tableware, bringing modern graphic design straight to the dinner table. Moving away from heavy 19th-century historicism, Dutch artists embraced Art Nouveau, capturing organic forms through flat, geometric stylization suited to mechanical production.
Cornelis van der Sluys designed Marguerite—Design No. 500—for E.J.F. van Dissel & Zonen of Eindhoven, early in his career. Woven as a complete table service, this finger towel belongs to a set comprising eleven others, thirteen napkins, and a tablecloth. All carried the same motif: large daisy heads caught in a tangle of spined, sinuous vines, their blossoms massed heavily along the borders.
The original was entirely white-on-white. Linen damask creates its pattern solely by turning the weave structure against itself—so the daisies appeared only where light grazed the satiny warp floats, vanishing as the viewer moved. Cupboards of this white linen, carrying their subtle shadow-play of figures and patterns, were the pride of the woman of the house.
Translating a square, border-bound napkin into a continuous, room-scale repeat meant extracting the outer thorn-and-blossom vine and aligning it into a vertical stripe.
The service entered the Rijksmuseum in 1979 as a gift of J.E. van Schendel-Reesink.

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.
