Does anyone recognise this wallpaper? 60s or 70s?!

Just found this behind a bedroom radiator and am curious as to how old it might be. Does anyone recognise the pattern?

30s or 70s? I love it though!!

According to Google's Gemini AI it is Liberty of London Ikat Anemone, Colourway C from 1972.

Reproduced as a fabric in 2024.

Although I wouldn't always take Gemini's word for things.

I think it must have made the room very cheerful, @Pontdulac!

Thank you @Redheadedstepchild, I’ve had a Google and it’s very similar to that one but not quite the same. I expect it’s a similar era though, thank you!

My dm put that in our bedroom in about 1971. It was quite a large pattern with a cream background. She certainly wouldn't have bought paper from Liberty's though. My mum's budget was more likely Woolworths.

I’m getting distinct early 70s vibes from that!

It’s in a similar style but you’re right, it’s not Liberty.

We had something similar in the late 70s, large pale pink flowers on a white background. It was at the budget end of the range, can't remember where from though.
