DESCRIPTION

The Hertex Persian Wallpaper captures the character of tightly woven natural basketry, where irregular fibres and changing weave directions create a surface that feels both crafted and quietly contemporary. Unlike traditional faux grasscloth, the stronger vertical strands become the defining feature, giving the wall an elegant sense of height and movement.

The Natural Linen colourway offers the softest interpretation of the woven design, combining warm beige tones with gently varied fibres that keep the surface feeling natural rather than flat. The stronger vertical strands remain beautifully apparent, creating subtle movement while preserving the calm character of the room.

This lighter palette pairs effortlessly with pale oak, limestone, linen upholstery, woven baskets and contemporary neutral interiors. It creates an easy, lived-in atmosphere where texture becomes the hero without competing for attention.

Curated by Hertex as part of the Zanzibar Collection, this Belgian-designed and manufactured wallpaper combines beautifully detailed design with practical everyday performance. The vinyl surface is extra washable and durable, while the non-woven backing allows for straightforward paste-the-wall installation and clean strippable removal.

La Muur Notes:

What immediately caught our attention is that this wallpaper doesn’t read like a typical grasscloth. From across the room, the lighter vertical fibres become surprisingly prominent, giving the wall a gentle upward rhythm before the woven structure begins to reveal itself.

Up close, the weave feels much chunkier than expected. The irregular strands and tiny imperfections create the impression of an African handwoven basket, which is exactly what makes the design feel so convincing.

Installation

Paste-the-wall application.
No booking required.
Panels hang dry and remove cleanly when needed.

Grasscloth-inspired wallpapers are not intended to create a seamless pattern across adjoining panels. Follow the manufacturer’s specified pattern match for the best result.

Grasscloth: What to Expect

These designs deliberately recreate the irregular character of natural grasscloth. The woven effect is intended to be appreciated as a series of individual panels rather than as one completely seamless surface.

Panel Variation
Subtle differences in colour and tone may occur between strips. These variations are part of the natural appearance the design is designed to replicate.

Visible Seams
Unlike many printed wallpapers, the joins between panels may remain visible. This is characteristic of grasscloth-inspired designs and contributes to their authentic woven appearance.

Installation Precision
Careful hanging is particularly important. Your installer should position each panel thoughtfully so that the finished wall feels balanced and intentional.

Installation Method
Some grasscloth-inspired wallpapers are designed to be installed with alternate strips reversed, while others require a straight pattern match. Always follow the manufacturer’s installation instructions for the specific design.

Wall Preparation

Walls should be smooth, clean, dry and properly primed.
The heavier-weight construction of this wallpaper can help soften the appearance of minor wall imperfections, but proper wall preparation remains important for the best finish.

Bathroom Suitability

Suitable for bathrooms with good ventilation.
Avoid direct and repeated water contact.
