The beautifully undulating lines of Art Nouveau meet soft tones of green and cream. Around the turn of the 20th century, wallpaper patterns like these became extremely popular thanks to their ability to create bright and cozy rooms.

Inspiration was drawn from the new idioms developed in Paris, Vienna and Berlin, among other places. The motif of foliage on elegantly curved stems is very characteristic of Art Nouveau.

The wallpaper was found in one of the rooms in the workers’ barracks in Gysinge and has now been reprinted.

Adhesive color-printed paper wallpaper, not prepasted, not plastered.

Wallpaper sample Hullebo pink

Wallpaper sample about 50 cm of our wallpaper Hullebo pink

Pattern height 40 cm

With the advent of Art Nouveau at the turn of the 20th century, a wide variety of new and modern patterns were introduced for wallpaper and textiles. There was everything from the strictly geometric to the undulating and floral. This particular wallpaper belongs to the latter category with its finely scattered flower stems and lobed leaves that form a playful and harmonious expression.

One of the great sources of inspiration at the time was Japanese woodblock prints with their masterfully composed plant decorations, and perhaps one senses some similar features here.

The Hullebo wallpaper is available in both a mild deep red and a muted medium green, both typical fashion colors of the period around 1900-1910. Together with a matching border, the pattern gives a stylish Art Nouveau feel and is particularly effective in combination with joinery painted in soft tones of, for example, Art Nouveau beige, English red or green umber.

Hullebo was found in one of the workers’ dwellings in Gysinge during an inventory in the early 1990s and has been waiting for a reprint ever since. Now it was finally time!

The wallpaper fits well in both small and large rooms, but here in Gysinge we think the pink would fit extra well as a bedroom wallpaper, as it gives a cozy and homely feeling.

Wallpaper Farstun gray

“Farstun” is a typical Hälsingland stencil wallpaper from the last half of the 19th century. The era is known in Sweden as the Karl Johan period and had a penchant for silk-imitating patterns in sober colors. But very few could afford such silk wallpapers. Most had to make do with imitations, usually in the form of stencilled patterns in glue paint on rag paper. The middle classes of the population, priests and burghers, were also unable to afford expensive silk damask, but instead turned to local painters who became masters at imitating fabric patterns using stencils and silk-like colors. Finally, farmers also embraced the fashion for silk wallpaper, but translated the wallpaper patterns into bright vernacular colors. We have found this wallpaper in several farms in the Järvsö area where the color scheme blue, gray, red is the most common and the wallpaper that most closely resembles the farmers’ traditional colors. The more subdued color schemes in the catalog, on the other hand, are more typical of the 19th century and the Karl Johan era. Stenciled wallpaper is almost always combined with a single-color breast panel up to window height, made of wood or gray rag paper. This gives the rooms a sense of calm and harmonious proportions, even if the wallpaper patterns happen to be wild and colorful.

Wallpaper Förmaket gray

When, in connection with the restoration of one of the attics at Wirums Säteri in Småland, we found the first flake of the wallpaper “Förmaket”, we thought we had found a real 18th century wallpaper. The diagonal checkered pattern with a small flower sprig in each square breathes very typical rococo. The flaming gray glue paint base also gives an unmistakable feeling of hand printing. Everything in our 18th century theory was right – until we found flag number two and saw that the pattern was printed on cellulose paper and not on paper made of cloth rag, as it should have been if it was genuine 18th century. The wallpaper also turned out to be made on a roll, not on glued sheets of paper, as in the 18th century. Today we know better. “Förmaket” is a wallpaper from around 1860, but of a low-key, elegant diagonal-patterned type that became popular already 100 years earlier – and is still one of the wallpaper printers’ favorite patterns. What distinguishes Gysinge’s wallpaper from other reprints is the uneven, handmade impression and the shifting ground color. Early machine printing art, one could define the wallpaper as.
