1920S DETAILS Walls Wallpaper was a popular choice in the 20s, although it is unlikely you would be able to find original rolls, so opt for a modern vintage-inspired example. There are lots of lovely 20s-inspired wallpapers to find. I recommend Graham & Brown who do a lovely range of Art Deco-styled ones, or Cole & Son for Art Deco or pretty floral patterns. For a bedroom wall, look for light, delicate floral designs in pale blue, peach or lilac for a feminine tone. In somewhere like the hallway or living room go for a more dramatic Art Deco style incorporating black, silver, yellow or red motifs and patterns.
