Waterhouse Pineapple Stencil Historic Wallpaper

Pride's Crossing

The pineapple, the traditional Georgian symbol of hospitality, was adopted
by the early Americans and still conveys a warm welcome today.
Here it is framed by an early American stencil design.
Old House Interiors offers a wide selection of first-quality wallcoverings and borders from the finest design houses in the world as well as one-of-a-kind antique, vintage, and new decorator accessories. We are pleased to bring you a variety of high-end decorator items (usually available only to-the-trade) at low-end below-wholesale prices.

Description: A sunny yellow background conveys the warm welcome traditionally represented by the pineapple. We love this in a foyer or hallway to greet you and your guests when you open the door. Or start your day with this cheery paper in a bedroom, kitchen, or breakfast room. Wonderful in a dining room and perfect in a living room too! Transcends fads and can be as casual or as formal as you want. If you're a collector, this looks as gorgeous with country redware and primitive paintings or early American pewter and hand-crafted toys as it does with the finest Georgian silver and silks or as a counterpoint to retro or contemporary chic furniture. Use it with loads of damask and velvet or let it showcase vintage coverlets, homespun, and antique linens and lace. Whatever your personal style, from avant garde to victorian, wouldn't you love to show it off against a background of this gorgeous wallpaper?

    HOW MUCH WALLPAPER DO I NEED?
    Although it varies by number of doors and windows and pattern match, it takes, on AVERAGE, 10 rolls to paper the walls in an 8 x 10 room with 8 ft. high ceilings. The same room with 10 ft. high ceilings would need 12 rolls. To paper the walls of an average 10 x 14 room with 8 ft. ceilings you will need, in general, a minimum of 14 rolls. If you have 10 ft. ceilings and a 16 x 20 room, you will likely need a minimum of 26 rolls. You should use an on-line wallpaper calculator to determine your exact needs. There are several available, including one at http://diy.easy2.com/. I always like to add a roll or two so I have extra just in case I cut a piece incorrectly or for things like lining drawers or shelves, or even papering a closet to match the room.
