I've seen it in Sweden where it comes in a variety of patterns and
textures and is quite popular. Highly durable and certainly better
than woodchip or anaglypta. Typically it's then painted.
Sounds a bit like the type of glass material that used to be used as
curtains. Can't remember why that disappeared - health & safety?
unwashability? ugliness?

or look for trhe words "tapet" (wallpaper) and "glasfiber"
Thanks everybody,
I eventually got some in a French store, as it doesn't look so
common in Britain. Actually, I got one that prouded itself not to
contain glass fibre, as there's a health hasard when you strip it off
(tiny bits of sharp glass fibre, not so good for lungs and eyes).
Thanks again,
