History
1740's Damask was originally was inspired by the wallpaper in one of the corridors in the palace of Versailles. Dating from around 1740 the design is iconic for the period with almost lace like pattern of intricate acanthus leaves and palms.
The Design is available in 4 pattern sizes; very small 24th scale, Small (cottages and low ceilings), Medium and large . Choose the pattern size that best suits your dolls house model. If unsure choose medium as this is the standard size for most houses. All pattern sizes are printed to order on 180gsm approximately 24" wide x 23" long paper (please allow a slight tolerance on sizes). The weight of the paper is similar to real wallpaper.

The Print
Individually printed to order onto high quality paper with high detail and colour definition. The image shown on this website does not reflect the quality of the printed item. The printed item will be of a much higher quality with no blur or undefined print. Colours will be crisp and clean.
Approx, 10" high x 23" long
The pattern does not repeat and so you will need to cut carefully to ensure a pattern repeat if you are joining edges.
Because of the length of the wallpaper I shall roll it to post it. All 4 edges are selvage which protects the edges of the design from any accidental scuffing. This selvage will need to be cut away.
Do you require taller paper?
If you require a taller paper the please do contact me. There is no maximum height. As a rule I charge £1 per inch (in height) and an additional £5 per set up per design.
