Baroque Wallpaper

Baroque wallpaper is a wall covering built on the grand European style of the 17th century. Think scrolls, curls and gold. Giffywalls prints each design to the exact size of your wall.

Why Baroque Wallpaper Suits Period Homes

British houses often come with the right bones for it. High ceilings. Deep cornicing. Picture rails and tall skirting. A grand scroll print does not fight that detail. It joins in. Victorian and Edwardian rooms take it best of all.

Chimney Breasts and Alcoves

Start with one wall, not four. A chimney breast is the natural pick. The motif sits in a neat frame and the eye knows where to land. Alcoves either side can stay plain, or take the same print in a smaller scale.

Baroque Wallpaper for Dining Rooms and Hallways

A dining room is made for this look. You sit, you talk, you have time to look. Hallways work too, since you pass through fast and never tire of the pattern. Our damask wallpaper range is the tidier cousin if you want a calmer repeat.

Colours for Soft British Light

Daylight here is grey more often than not. That is good news for gold. Metal tones need contrast to glow, and they get it from a deep ground. Black and gold. Ink blue and gold. Oxblood and cream. Our luxurious wallpaper range shows how far you can push it.

  • Dining rooms: dark ground, gold scrolls, candle light.
  • Hallways: a bold repeat you walk past, not sit with.
  • Bedrooms: one wall behind the bed, nothing more.
  • Cloakrooms: all four walls, since the room is tiny.

Modern Flats and Rented Homes

Plain new walls suit a big motif, because nothing else competes. Renting in London or Manchester? Choose the peel and stick finish. It lifts off at the end of a tenancy and leaves the paint alone. A grand look with no lasting mark on the flat.

What to Pair With It

Keep the rest of the room simple. Plain velvet, dark timber and brass all sit well beside gold scrolls. Add one gilt mirror and stop. Too many gold pieces and the room tips over. Glasgow and Edinburgh homes with tall bay windows carry the look especially well.

Made to Measure, Free UK Delivery

Measure your wall and send us the width and height. We print the mural to fit, so a scroll never lands half-cut in a corner. Panels come numbered with hanging notes in the box. UK delivery is free and fast. Order a sample if two golds look close on screen. They rarely stay close on a wall.

What is baroque wallpaper?

Baroque wallpaper features the ornate visual language of seventeenth-century Europe. Scrolling acanthus leaves, gilded medallions, dramatic florals, and architectural flourishes. Printed as large-scale murals for modern walls.

Which rooms suit baroque wallpaper best?

Dining rooms, bedrooms, powder rooms, and entryways. Small rooms are ideal for full-wrap drama, while in larger rooms a single ornate feature wall behind the table or bed delivers the effect without overwhelming.

Does baroque style work in a modern home?

Yes. The contrast is the appeal. One ornate wall supplies the architectural interest a plain modern room lacks. Keep furniture simple and current, and the baroque wall reads curated rather than theatrical.

What colors pair with baroque wallpaper?

Gold-on-charcoal and gold-on-ink are the signature looks, flattered by brass, marble, velvet, and dark wood. Softer options include pewter on dove gray and tone-on-tone creams for a quieter take on the style.

Is the mural scaled to my wall size?

Yes, and with baroque it matters more than most styles. Motif scale makes or breaks the look. Enter your wall's width and height and the design is printed with ornament sized, centered, and symmetrical for your exact wall.
