A rectangular section of wallpaper with a dense tangle of honeysuckle vines and flowers against a cream background. The curving vines have leaves in pale green and darker sage green. The flowers are starburst-shaped, with long thin petals in beige and light pink. The curves of the vines, leaves, and flowers create rhythm in the design. In the margins are printing marks, various lines and blobs of ink. Along the right margin, rotated ninety degrees clockwise, is 'Honeysuckle 263' in italics, and 'MORRIS & Co.' in a large sans serif.
