"When we first bought the home, it had been neglected for some time and was quite dilapidated," says designer Clare Vivier of her Belle Epoque abode in France's picturesque Loire Valley. "It has lived many lives, so it needed a lot of TLC." But while the restoration was a challenge, it also revealed rare gifts: antique linens and remnants of wallpaper from bygone eras, which ultimately provided the inspiration for Saint Calais, a new line of wallpapers and textiles Vivier designed, available onWallshoppe now. How magical is that?

Saint Calais features 19 charming designs, available in an array of colorways and a range of matching fabrics. Renters (and anyone with wallpaper commitment issues) fear not: Rolls come in both removable and traditional formats, starting at $58 and $139, respectively. Honestly, this is such a win for the commitment-phobes.

We'll admit to being particularly smitten withLattice JardinandLa Garland, but there's plenty to choose from if you're after more historical or transitional styling. Read on for a closer look at a few of our favorites—as well as a peek into Vivier's house, where her patterns are on fantastic display. C'est si bon!

While we adore all the bold florals in Saint Calais, the strength of this particular pattern lies in its scale—which is clearly not for the timid. Fun fact: Zinnias were out of fashion in the decades before Vivier's house was constructed, and French horticulturists played a key role in bringing them back to popularity through the development of fringe-y, double-flowered varieties. On another note: get a load of those insanely gorgeous metal balustrades and the restored tile floor in Vivier's home. I'm swooning.

Here's another versatile floral—of which there are many in the Saint Calais collection—but the grid feels graphic and not especially feminine. Pictured here in "red clay," the small format repeat makes it extremely versatile. It's lovely paired with painted millwork in this drawing room but would also be extremely sweet in a kitchen, or add an unexpected je ne sais quoi to the interior of a closet. Trust me on this one.

Toile patterns (fun fact, it's the French word for "linen cloth") date back centuries, and the subject matter has seen 21st century reinterpretations both cheeky (see:Brooklyn toile,Beverly Hills) and nouveau iconic (Sheila Bridge'sHarlem Toile). The country scenery in Vivier's version is classical but the saturated colors—shown here in blue but available in vibrant options like poppy pink—give it a fresh, even funky spin. OK but how good is that pink?

This is, hands down, the most beloved buds of the bunch: the La Garlande print has a gorgeous, clambering rose motif. The blue olive option is glorious, and the verticality would make a small room feel larger or emphasize high ceilings. Even Vivier can't pick a favorite without circling back: "I have many favorites from the Wallshoppe collection, but I especially love La Garland." Honestly, same.
