Adelphi Paper Hangings

Posted on | February 11, 2008 | 2 Comments

I’ve started to collect a massive pile of favorite wallpaper sites. It seems everyday another great company pops up. I thought I would start my posts with more traditional companies and move toward modern prints. I will then compile all the sites in a neat and tighty list for easy reference. If you have a favorite site please leave a comments below and I will be sure to check it out.

So let’s start with Adelphi Paper Hangings. Adelphi makes classic prints in historical correct colors and motifs. Each print has been thoroughly researched in institutions and archives in the US, England and France. One of the things that seperates Adlephi apart is the great deal of effort placed on achieving a process that is correct to the original historical wood block prints. Adelphi uses modern tools, materials, and procedures that compare to it’s historic counterparts to produce papers with the same genuine character. To read more about this process, click here. Check out my favorites above and below. To view the entire collection of historic papers dating from 1750′s-1930′s click here.
