Starlight Fairy Wallpaper Australian Museum of Design Margaret Clark

Margaret Clark Federation Fairies Australian Museum of Design

Curated by the Australian Museum of Design as part of the Federation Fairies Collection, Margaret Clark’s Starlight Fairy in Midnight is a dreamlike celebration of early Australian illustration. Hand-drawn in 1918, the design features whimsical fairies floating beneath starlit skies, surrounded by native bushland flora. Delicate gum blossoms, glowing lanterns, and winged characters unfold across a deep navy ground, capturing the stillness and mystery of the bush after dark.

Available in paper, vinyl, or foil finishes, this wallpaper suits a wide range of interiors — from children’s bedrooms and reading nooks to boutique retail, heritage cottages, and whimsical hospitality spaces. Starlight Fairy brings a sense of magic and nostalgia to every surface, balancing gentle charm with historical character. A rare example of Australian fairy art reimagined for modern interiors, it invites the viewer into a quiet, enchanted world of native beauty and imagination.
