As well as recreating facsimile wallpapers from discovered fragments, the Practice also holds a large archive of original material dating from the 17th- 20th Century. This provides an invaluable resource for the accurate design and creation of wonderful wallpapers, paints and interiors in almost any style from any period.

Whether block printing, flocking, stencilling, embossing or using gold and silver leaf, the results are rich in colour and texture, giving a lustrous finish impossible to achieve using modern methods and materials. 

As one of the last block printing studios in Europe, the team take enormous pride in their work and the contribution they make to the survival of traditional skills, the rural community and the preservation of our heritage.
