12,00 €
DESCRIPTION
This design was produced by the Jacquemart & Bénard manufacture, in 1805. It represents a quadillage enhanced with flowers and peacock feathers. The original decor was printed by means of engraved wooden-blocks on joined together paper rolls. To revitalize this lovely wallpaper from the very end of the 18th century, our workgroup has carried out a meticulous digital restoration. This very beautiful wallpaper with geometric ornaments was created in the spirit of domino papers.
To give life and modernity to this beautiful wallpaper from the end of the 18th century, our workshop carried out a long digital restoration.
Patterns are printed on light ivory 300g vellum paper (stiff), format A3. The boards are sold in sets of 3, they cannot be purchased individually. They are featured in a majestic cardboard envelope with patterns.
Collection of la Bibliothèque Nationale de France
Colors
Originally, this wallpaper was very damaged and had a dark khaki background color. We have chosen to make it brighter to give it more modernity. At the end of the 18th / beginning of the 19th century, it was quite common for manufacturers to smooth the backgrounds of their wallpapers with this type of green / mastic color, which corresponded to the tastes of the time.
