Tourmaline Pink (Mat paper)

Inspired by the illustrations of the 17th-century botanist and entomologist Maria Sybilla Merian, who travelled to Suriname and documented hundreds of species of insects and their food flowers. Tourmaline is a geometrical formation of butterflies with pink and yellow wings, with smaller butterflies in mottled brown and glassy dragonflies on a cream white background. The arrangement of the little creatures in concentric circular and square formations echoes the highly decorative azulejo tiles of Spain and Portugal. Available as a wallpaper, or as a completely organic and sustainable linen woven with a light herringbone pattern.
