Le Presse Papier’s 18th century florals-inspired wallpaper generously blooms with antique roses that tumble around the entrance hall and clamber up the tall walls of the staircase in this unique Fontainebleau home.

​

Expertly installed by Fouassier, the walls were first stripped of old paper, then meticulously prepared ready to hang Le Presse Papier’s heritage botanical Roses of Lyon wallpaper.

​

Carefully cut to fit every intricate angle, every sloping surface, and around every nook and between each baluster, the process was complex and exacting.

Le Presse Papier is a Living Heritage Company (EPV) based in Lyon, France, where many of their designs are in the permanent collection of the French Wallpaper Museum.
