Little Greene - Burges Butterfly - Slaked Lime - Wallpaper
Adorning the walls of the Boudoir at Knightshayes Court in Devon, ‘Burges Butterfly’ was designed by Gothic Revival architect and designer William Burges (1827-1881) and is an obvious relation to another wallpaper of the same origin, ‘Burges Snail’. Just like the Snail, the design has no deeper historic association with Knightshayes Court, Burges’s only complete country house, but is another Burges pattern, influenced by his passion for the architecture and art of medieval Europe and Asian-influenced design. This fun, charming paper has been faithfully reproduced in five contemporary, surface-printed colourways.
