Osborne & Little Wallcovering

Fontelle, a green floral vine pattern with a larger scale takes on a graphic effect.
The Palais Chinois toile pattern on the back wall has a clean, water color style to it. It becomes an updated classic. The color palette of red and black on the Voujours pattern in the foreground gives it a current appealing look.
The open pattern of Soubise, a white and tan paisley is a fresh look. The tan colorway is interesting and soothing.

Scalamandre's Baldwin Bamboo

These Scalamandre' patterns are traditional, classic and perfect for today. The Bamboo pattern was made popular by the designer, Billy Baldwin. It was an element of his upscale, sophisticated aesthetic.

Every colorway has its own personality. The red and purple colorways are striking and demand attention.

The soft green and yellow colorways have a more subtle appeal. All are great examples of Billy Baldwin's ability to make the classic modern.

Scalamandre's Florentina

This bountiful botanical pattern has been around for quite awhile. The detail of the drawing and the intricate use of color is brilliant.


Each colorway is stunning. The change in the background color highlights various details in the pattern.
