Summary
Wallpaper sample - Daisy and leaf design on a blue ground, a beautiful blue verditer ground printed in 2 colours, white and pale blue, on handmade cotton paper. The formalised design particularly including the trefoil is very popular between 1840 and 1870, (see pattern books at the V and A by John Trumble, Jeffrey and Company, and Townsend, Parker and Company circa 1852-74) at the influence of such designers as Pugin and Owen Jones.
