Ficus

The Ficus collection by L’Antic Colonial is available in five distinct colourways: Ficus Forest, Ficus Turquoise, Ficus Pearl, Ficus Taupe, and Ficus Coal. This range of tones means you can find an option to suit everything from bold, nature-inspired schemes to softer, more neutral interiors.

Drop match installation means that when hanging consecutive strips of wallpaper, you need to offset each strip by a specific distance (measured in centimetres) so that the pattern aligns correctly across the wall. This is an important detail for Ficus wallpaper, as ignoring the drop will result in a mismatched pattern. We strongly recommend having this wallpaper hung by a professional decorator familiar with pattern matching.

Each roll of Ficus wallpaper measures 53 x 1005 cm. When calculating how many rolls you need, remember to account for the drop match repeat, as this means some material will be trimmed away to align the pattern – so it is always wise to order a little more than your basic measurements suggest. If you are unsure, feel free to contact our team at Stoke Tiles for advice.

Non-woven wallpaper is made from a blend of natural and synthetic fibres, which makes it more stable and less prone to tearing or shrinking during installation compared to traditional paper-backed wallpaper. One of its practical advantages is that you can paste the wall rather than the paper itself, which many decorators find easier to work with. It is also generally more breathable, which can help reduce the risk of mould developing behind the wallpaper.

Ficus wallpaper works beautifully as a feature wall, where one bold colourway or the leaf-inspired design can become a real focal point of the room. It can equally be used across all walls for a more immersive effect, particularly in larger spaces. Because the drop match requires careful pattern alignment, using it on a single wall is also a more straightforward project if you are less experienced with wallpapering.
