Raffia wallpaper

Raffia wallpaper for a warm, natural home

Raffia wallpaper brings the calm, organic feel of woven natural fibre straight onto your walls. The material is made from the leaf fibres of the raffia palm, a tropical palm that grows in places such as Madagascar and Africa. The fibres are harvested, dried and woven by hand, which gives every length its own lively weave pattern. At Selected Wallpapers you will find raffia wallpaper from established labels such as Arte, Casamance, Élitis, Mark Alexander, CMO Paris, Greenland, Thibaut and Omexco.

What makes raffia wallpaper special

Raffia is a renewable natural fibre with a tangible, woven structure. Because the fibres are processed by hand, no length is ever quite the same as the next: subtle differences in tone and weave density give the material its character. That texture catches the light softly and adds depth to a wall without any bold motif. The result is a wall covering that feels warm and earthy and that sits just as comfortably in a botanical interior as in a quiet, minimalist room.

How raffia wallpaper is made

Producing raffia wallpaper is craftsmanship. After the harvest, the leaf fibres of the raffia palm are separated, washed and dried. They are then woven into a sturdy cloth, which is applied to a paper or non-woven backing. The outcome is a natural wall covering that looks rustic yet stands up well to everyday use. To carry the natural theme further, raffia pairs nicely with materials from our textured wallpaper and sisal wallpaper collections.
