Royal line of wallpaper from Bradbury & Bradbury

Bradbury & Bradbury, one of my favorite sources for reproduction wallcoverings, has introduced a royally-inspired line of damask wallpapers. Based on an 1881 wallcovering originally made for Queen Victoria's Throne Room at St. James's Palace, these prints — unearthed from the company's stash of vintage papers — haven't been offered in their catalogs before now.

Part of the Morris Tradition Collection, the hand-printed St. James (above in ruby) is basically a scaled down version of the 17-color real thing.  Meanwhile, the Knightsbridge Damask (shown in burgundy and jasper after the jump) has a 12-color floral ogee pattern with an even smaller repeat, which is great for making a compact powder room appear larger. St James: $250 for a 27-inch wide, 15-foot long roll that covers 30 square feet. Knightsbridge: $107 per same size roll.
