A lion in a top hat, cast in silver. Ash King is a gothic lion portrait wallpaper that renders its royal subject nearly monochrome, ash gray, charcoal and smoke over the faintest warm undertone. Gothic, austere, impossible to ignore.

The design

Monochrome lion portraits in top hats, silvered gray and charcoal with soft ash shading. Quiet severity, gallery calm. The charcoal detail surfaces out of the ash ground slowly, like a portrait developing. From the doorway it presents as tailored pattern, and only up close does the top hat introduce itself. Cool daylight sharpens the silver cast, while lamplight softens the whole court into velvet.

Works best in

Home offices, bedrooms, living rooms, dining rooms, powder rooms and entryways happiest with their drama in grayscale.

Style notes

Victorian portraiture, barbered and unbothered. It holds its own beside black leather, polished nickel, charcoal wool and shelves kept deliberately spare. In a home office it chairs the meeting, and in a powder room it out-deadpans every guest. White trim crowns it, black trim closes the curtains, and gray paint sits out the argument entirely.

Order with confidence

Ash King is an original pattern from WALLPLICITY, made seamless so the court assembles across every panel without a gap in the ranks. Choose peel and stick or traditional wallpaper. Samples available, and the gray reads differently in every room, so see it in yours.
