Inspired by the hand-knotted heirloom rug of the same name, Solace wallpaper enjoys the same combination of four colors — gold, black, violet, and warm white. The original rug design was inspired by intricate, detailed embroidery, which is also reflected in the wallpaper design. Elegant gold cranes — a symbol of longevity, good fortune, integrity, balance, and devotion — soar above slim strands of foliage and exotic orchids. Glorious orchid blooms are a powerful symbol in Far Eastern philosophy, representing beauty, charm, love, refinement, and thoughtfulness. As with many of Wendy's designs, the power and influence of nature is clear, with all aspects of the natural world co-existing in harmony. The gold, black and warm white create a glamorous, neutral backdrop, lifted with a touch of violet on each crane's head. The mural is made of 4 drops of individual panels. Each panel is 27 inches wide (68.5 cm), 9.8 feet high (3 m), and supplied as one continuous roll. The completed design measures 9 feet wide (274 cm).

It was a turning point; the perfect match for her love of color and pattern, combined with storytelling. It was the start of a design journey that comes from the heart, that puts passion and craftsmanship at the center of every project, and strives to connect people, places, art, ideas and nature. Authentic rug-making demands incredible skill, craftsmanship and attention to detail. Wendy Morrison Design wants to protect those skills, to support the artisans who tuft and weave and bring the designs to life, to explain the history and storytelling behind rug design, and to celebrate and help maintain this centuries-old art. Since 2012, Wendy Morrison Design has worked with the same Indian manufacturer and artisans who share their desire to create rugs of outstanding quality. Wendy Morrison Design takes ethical trading seriously and is a proud partner of GoodWeave, a not-for-profit organization that ensures fair working conditions.
