Toile de Jouy Wallpaper

I spoke to someone about Toile wallpaper at a Christening recently.

Toile de Jouy entered the English language around the 16th Century from the French for "linen or cloth" or "canvas"

As you can see the pattern consists of a predominantly white (or off white) background in which a complex pattern is repeated. This pattern is usually made up of one single colour, usually black, red or blue, although other colours are sometimes found.

This blog concentrates on wallpaper for that romantic look to go with the French style beds in our previous blog.
