Meiji Stripe Wallpaper (1896–97)

Originally a Shin-Bijutsukai woodblock print on paper, this small-scale stripe was most likely intended as a kimono textile design. Its clean rhythm and stylised flora are typical of Meiji textiles of that period where traditional Japanese motifs were combined with bold Western decoration. The natural forms here include bamboo shoots, bound by snowflakes, and Ume ­­­­(Japanese plum blossom). Meiji Stripe is a record of a time when Japanese and Art Nouveau aesthetics profoundly influenced each other following Japan’s reopening to international trade in the 1850s. In this version of a stripe, contrasting backgrounds live respectfully and in harmony, side by side.

Quantities

Please order the correct amount of rolls needed to ensure colour continuity. We cannot guarantee an exact colour match across different batches.

We recommend adding a 10% margin to your wall square meterage. Divide this by the roll square meterage to calculate the amount of rolls you require. If in doubt our Wallpaper Calculator should be able to help.
