Founded in 1875, Cole & Son is one of Britain’s most respected wallpaper houses. The brand has built its reputation on craftsmanship, creativity, and a remarkable archive of designs that continue to inspire interiors today.

In its early years, Cole & Son wallpapers were produced using carved wood blocks, a meticulous printing process that required both skill and patience. The company later revived traditional techniques such as flocking, preserving historic methods while continuing to evolve its designs.

Over the years, Cole & Son wallpapers have appeared in some of Britain’s most iconic interiors, including the Houses of Parliament and Buckingham Palace. Today, the brand continues to hold a Royal Warrant, reflecting its longstanding place in British design history.

What makes Cole & Son particularly special is the depth of its design library. It includes everything from historical patterns inspired by classic British interiors to bold collaborations with renowned creatives such as David Hicks, Piero Fornasetti, and more recently Vivienne Westwood.

Whether you're drawn to floral wallpaper, stripe wallpaper, bold tropical wallpaper, dramatic art deco wallpaper, or richly layered textured wallpaper, Cole & Son offers designs that bring character and story into a space.
