Wallpaper Palms M6507-4

Palms M6507-4 puts white fronds on a dusty pink ground. The pink stays restrained because the pattern is drawn as line work rather than filled shapes.

Palms is a drawing of large palm fronds, each one in outline only, overlapping one another. Nothing is filled in, so the large motif stays light enough even for a small room.

Mika is the children's collection from ICH Wallcoverings, where watercolour animals and landscapes are matched with quiet stripes, textures and plain companions so that the walls of one room can be put together as a set. The paper is non woven and of the Easy Up type: the paste goes onto the wall rather than onto the paper, and a dry length can still be slid into place. The roll measures 53 cm × 10.05 m with a 53 cm repeat and a straight match, so the pattern joins at the same height on every length.

The surface is washable, so fingerprints and marks come off with a damp cloth. Lightfastness is very good, which means a sunny wall will not fade quickly. When the room is redone, the old covering comes away dry in one piece and the wall underneath needs no fresh filling.
