Vertical stripes in confectionery colours, each band carrying the faded quality of old sweet shop packaging. Sundae references those waxed paper bags that once held sherbet lemons and pear drops, their pastel stripes bleached by sunlight in corner shop windows.
The pattern employs narrow vertical bands alternating between white and single pastel tones. Five colourways offer chromatic variation: soft pink, mint green, butter yellow, lavender, pale blue. Each stripe maintains uniform width, creating rhythmic repetition without complexity. The effect reads as gentle rather than bold, colours desaturated to suggest nostalgia rather than demand attention. Scale remains modest, suitable for smaller rooms without overwhelming intimate spaces.
Printed in Cornwall using precision methods that maintain crisp stripe edges and consistent colour saturation across rolls. The substrate accepts ink cleanly, preventing bleeding that would blur pattern definition.
Sundae works best in spaces embracing softness: nurseries, bedrooms, powder rooms where pastel palettes feel appropriate. The vertical orientation elongates perceived ceiling height in compact rooms. Consider single feature walls rather than full room application to prevent sweetness from cloying.
