The Ambassador Wallpaper: Cream, Oxblood & Steel Blue | 1925 Deco Collection

About This Design

At wall scale, the cream ground gives the oxblood and steel blue diamonds room to stack floor to ceiling, and the effect changes completely. Up close, the impasto ridges inside each diamond catch light and shadow in a way that reads almost architectural, like plasterwork rather than paper. Step back and the lattice locks into a grid so precise it feels load-bearing.

This is a pattern built for a room that wants a spine. It doesn't drift or soften at a distance the way some florals do, it holds its structure whether you're standing in the doorway or seated across the room. That consistency is what makes it work as a full feature wall rather than just an accent.

The Inspiration

The idea came from thinking about enclosed, formal spaces, the kind with wood panelling and good lighting, where every surface earns its place. Diamond lattice work has always shown up in ironwork and tile, but rarely with this much colour confidence. The Ambassador takes that architectural bone structure and gives it a Deco era palette.

What It Carries

A wall dressed in The Ambassador doesn't ask to be softened with extra decoration. It holds a room's attention on its own, in a study, a formal dining room, a hotel corridor built to impress on arrival. The oxblood grounds it, the steel blue keeps it from tipping into heaviness. It's a wall for people who want their room to state its intentions clearly.

Design Size Options

This design is available in three layout scales to suit your wall and room:

Grand: A large-scale composition that commands the full wall. Best for spacious rooms, high ceilings, and statement feature walls where the pattern needs room to breathe.

Classic: A balanced, repeated layout with natural structure and visual rhythm. Works beautifully across most room sizes and wall proportions.

Detailed: A fine-scale repeat that reads as texture from a distance and reveals its impasto detail up close. Ideal for smaller rooms, accent walls, or spaces where you want depth without visual weight.

💡 Style tip: Use a measuring tape to mark out 50cm on your wall. That window shows you exactly how the Detailed scale brings movement and energy into your space without overpowering it.

Size & Quantity Guide

Every wallpaper in this collection is individually produced to match your exact wall dimensions.

To order, measure your wall height and width in metres. Multiply height x width to get your total square metres. Enter that number in the Area Size field and the same number in the Quantity field at checkout.

Example: A wall 2.5m high and 4m wide = 10m². Enter "2.5m high x 4m wide" in the Area Size field and 10 in the Quantity field.

Once your order is placed, we prepare a tailored layout of the design scaled to your exact measurements and send it to you by email or WhatsApp for approval before production begins.

B Tex: A classic non-woven base with a smooth, modern matte feel.
Woven Linen: Subtle texture with a natural, tactile linen weave.
