Best Buds is a commemorative Jubilee wallpaper, designed by Kate Hawkins. The anthropomorphic buds were inspired by a William Kilburn sketch from 1800. They can be read as flowers, crowns, or even winking eyes that warmly watch over us, while the repetition in the design nods to a lifetime of duty and best behaviour. A little like wallpaper, Queen Elizabeth II was the quiet backdrop to our lives; that consistent, comforting presence. She was there. She had always been there.

This design is printed to order. Please order the correct amount of rolls needed to ensure continuity across batches.
