Hollow Crown carpet

The Hollow Crown wallpaper pattern from the Britannia Unchained collection evokes in its solemn composition the presence and understated authority of British aristocratic decor of the Tudor and early Elizabethan period. Inspired by heraldic aesthetics and royal symbolism, the design of this pattern reflects the British nobility's fascination with power, history and tradition, subtly represented in the interior decor of grand English residences.

The central motif of the wallpaper is defined by stylised representations of the royal crown, arranged in a repetitive and solemn rhythm, which echo the symbolic order of medieval heraldry. Each crown, drawn with graphic precision, is framed by geometric decorative motifs that visually enhance the composition, giving it balance and rigour. This rigourous structure directly reflects the ornamental style found in the interiors of the great English castles and palaces of the late medieval and early English Renaissance.

The colour palette of the Hollow Crown accentuates the solemn and noble effect of the design by the use of deep and elegant tones: charcoal grey, royal blue or dark green, against which the heraldic motifs are illustrated in discreet shades of patinated gold, antique silver or bronze. This selection of colours, faithful to the Tudor period, subtly evokes the interior decoration of the great ceremonial halls, where the diffused light highlights the richness and prestige of the heraldic symbols.

The Hollow Crown pattern is a direct reference to the discreet power displayed in the stately salons, where each visual symbol carried with it a story of family status and tradition. Thus, the design of this wallpaper not only decorates, but subtly communicates the history and aristocratic authority specific to the spaces where British royalty and nobility have forged their identity over the centuries.
