Purple Damask Wallpaper
Damask takes its name from woven silks traded through Damascus. Its mirrored, scrolling medallions bring formality and heritage character.
Purple – from lavender to plum – feels creative, romantic and a little unexpected.

Styling tips
- Tone-on-tone damask is a sophisticated backdrop for antiques; high-contrast versions suit modern gothic or maximalist schemes.
- Mix with sage or ochre to keep it modern.
- Hang damask centred on a chimney breast or bed so the medallions line up symmetrically.
How much will I need?
A typical living room wall of about 4.2 m wide × 2.4 m high needs 9 drops. With a 64 cm pattern repeat you get 3 drops per 10 m roll, so you would order 3 rolls – from £132.60 on Standard paper to £217.62 on Luxe. Use the calculator on any product page for your exact walls.
Make it your own
Every design in this edit can be recoloured, rescaled and previewed on a photo of your own wall in Design Your Own, then printed made-to-measure.
