Rainforest Squiggle

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

The Rainforest Squiggle is an abstract and free flowing interpretation of the iconic Squiggle print – first seen in Vivienne Westwood and Malcolm McLaren’s debut catwalk collection Pirate in 1981. The Rainforest Squiggle , featured in Cole & Son x Vivienne Westwood, was first presented in the Autumn-Winter 2014/15 Gold Label Save the Rainforest runway collection. Vivienne and Andreas referenced master couturier Charles Frederick Worth, combined with influences from the Asháninka, a Peruvian tribe living in the rainforests which they visited in 2013 with Cool Earth. The runway show itself repre

Soft Thistle

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

First used by Vivienne Westwood as a gesture to the house’s affinity with Scotland, Soft Thistle features an abstracted representation of the regal milk thistle. The angular edges are softened with muted colours, with the motif appearing in the Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood Spring-Summer 2023 Sous le ciel de Paris collection. Whilst the oversized scale of the design brings a strong graphic quality to the wallpaper, designers at Cole & Son worked to soften the pattern subtly for the walls by combining it with a hand-painted, cross-hatched texture that simulates the distressed fabric

Vivienne Love Andreas

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

The V Love A print was hand-painted personally by Vivienne and first featured in the Autumn-Winter 2022/23 Andreas Kronthaler for Vivienne Westwood La Nouvelle Eve collection. The painting was inspired by an art book Vivienne was enjoying at the time of naïve 18th-century Italian paintings, featuring countrymen in the mountains. The collection was an elegant tribute to the world of theatre and art, reflected across prints and through silhouette – presented in the historic Belle Époque La Nouvelle Eve revue theatre in Montmartre, Paris. For translation into wallpaper the Cole & Son studio worke

True-Punk Stripe

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

The subversion of striped fabrication has been a recurring theme in the collections of Vivienne Westwood from the early years. The painted stripe was seen in collections from the 1980s, often in the background or overprinted in designs seen during the punk era. Most recently the True-Punk Stripe has evolved and featured in the Vivienne Westwood Autumn-Winter 2025/26 collection, seen on oversized shirting. Cole & Son’s translation into a wallcovering retains the overprinting method which shows the original hand-painted quality of the stripe, as well as the texture of the material it was painted

Hand-Painted Leopard

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

Animal print has been used by the Vivienne Westwood house for over four decades in bold, subversive interpretations. Leopard print was oversized and magnified in the Spring-Summer 1989 Civilizade collection and later found in bright red tones in Autumn-Winter 1992/93 Always On Camera . Vivienne famously enjoyed using the prints in any way other than how they are found in nature. Hand-Painted Leopar d has been entirely redrawn by hand in the Cole & Son studio, referencing a stylized leopard print with an organic sense of movement. The design has been printed using a screen-print technique to im

Absence of Roses Moire

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

Absence of Roses is a print synonymous with the Vivienne Westwood house, first seen as an illustrative rose motif in the Spring-Summer 1994 Gold Label Café Society collection. The Roses print was originally inspired by painter and botanist to Marie Antoinette, Pierre-Joseph Redouté and later seen as a silhouette print in the Absence of Roses iteration. For the Cole & Son x Vivienne Westwood collection, the Absence of Roses print features the classic Cole & Son Moiré as its ground, giving the wallpaper a depth, movement and rich heritage associated with that of a Westwood gown. Moiré, a design

Draped Tartan

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

For this new wallcovering collection designers from both houses sought to create an expansive panel design; where MacAndreas Tartan sits as the fabric, Draped Tartan becomes the gown. The result was inspired by the famous taffeta gown worn by Kate Moss in the Vivienne Westwood Autumn-Winter 1993/94 Anglomania collection, which was cut and ruched allowing the tartan to crease and fall in different directions. Draped Tartan creates an exuberant trompe-l’oeil motif honouring the gown’s expressive folds. Cole & Son’s artists entirely hand-painted the design’s fabric over countless hours, imbuing t

MacAndreas Tartan

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

The MacAndreas Tartan brings together two signatures of each design house – a Cole & Son Jaspe strié print and an iconic Vivienne Westwood tartan – to create a subtly refined design with global recognition. The MacAndreas Tartan was originally designed by Vivienne, working with weavers Lochcarron of Scotland, in an homage to her husband and design partner, Andreas Kronthaler. First seen in the seminal Autumn-Winter 1993/94 Gold Label Anglomania collection – a reference to the French passion for all things English. Vivienne’s fascination with English and Scottish traditions served as a source o

Narina - Baobab

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

Celebrating 40 years of Ardmore ceramics, the iconic Narina has been updated in three new colour palettes; Pink & Earth, a grounded, rusty hue, as well as two metallics, a burnished Platinum and doré Gold.  Sharing its name with the beautiful Narina Trogan Bird native to KwaZulu-Natal, Narina is derived from the detailed patterning found on many Ardmore bowls and vases. Cole & Son artists have created a soft watercoloured geometric design using the stylised feathers of the Narina Bird to produce a subtle yet unusual semi-plain wallpaper. 

Afrika Damask

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

An organically formed damask, Afrika Damask ’s hand-painted motifs were directly inspired by an Ardmore ceramic piece. This new take on a semi-plain is an elevated wallcovering option which can be paired with other Baobab designs. South Africa is at the heart of each colour palette with the earthy Sandstone & Ruby and Safari & Blush, whilst Tangerine & Marigold and Onyx & Citrine create walls that wow.

Injisuthi

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

Injisuthi ’s immersive scene of playful cats and water-filled pools takes its inspiration from the waterfalls found within the Drakensberg mountains, a wild and beautiful UNESCO World Heritage Site close to Ardmore’s studios. This lush display contains numerous animals, including big cats, flamingos, and fish, with more unfolding the further you look. Injisuth i’s three colour palettes are representative of this changing botanical landscape with the verdant Jade showing the scene in full abundance; Viridian turning the scene from day to dusk; and Stone & Sand showing that even when the seasons

Cheetah Prowl

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

A parade of King Cheetahs with their distinctive three-striped back stalk through the feather-like grasses of the alluring Cheetah Prowl. Famed as one of the rarest animals in the world, the elusive King Cheetah is both mythical and beguiling. Palettes of Grass, Bronze, and Slate are akin to the South African landscape across the seasons, with a hot Cerise adding truly vibrant colour and pattern.

Protea Panthera

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

The whimsical and slightly surreal Protea Panthera is an ode to the beauty of Ardmore’s ceramics. Proudly centring around South Africa’s national flower, the protea, big cats dance along its central vine and a pair of striking green eyes look out from one prominent bloom. Surrounded by intricately embellished flowers, leaves and bugs, Protea Panthera ’s grand scale captures the wild beauty of South Africa. Precious palettes of Stone, Onyx, and Rose Quartz enhance this conversational design with Clementine’s zesty ground colour creating an eye-catching, modern space.

Acacia Canopy

Painted in the distinctive, intricately patterned style of Ardmore ceramics, Acacia Canopy ’s dense leaf coverage invites the eye to wander within.

Iris

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

The leafy, detailed linework of Iris is typical of its once screen-printed production, with each layer being perfectly imperfect in its overlapping. The flower’s unique shape and immersive leaf repeat creates a full and lush wallcovering. Taking its name from the Greek goddess, its heady perfume is a garden favourite loved by butterflies and hummingbirds alike. The Bright Violet on Citrine palette sits in contrast to the cottage garden hues of Iris Blue on Stone, Lavender on Duck Egg, Soft Coral on Chalk, and Soft Cerulean on Porcelain.

Moss Trellis

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

Moss Trellis ' large-scale design was designed in 1935, belying its 1930s roots with its bold, abstract print.

With the addition of metallic detailing, the show-stopping Black and Gold brings an opulence to this classic design.

Bamboo Forest

Cole & Son > Wallpaper

An early 19th Century design, Bamboo Forest 's verdant foliage is testament to the popularity of the Orientalist style during the Victorian period.
