FAQs
Is this wallpaper suitable for bathrooms?
This wallpaper is designed for dry interior rooms; it is not recommended for bathrooms or high-humidity areas where moisture can affect the adhesive.
How do I calculate how many rolls I need?
Measure the height and width of your walls, including door and window areas, and consult a professional installer or a standard wallpaper calculator for the repeat length of this specific pattern.
Can I paint over this wallpaper later?
It is not recommended to paint over high-quality designer wallpaper as the texture and intricate pattern may show through or cause the paper to peel.
Is the pink colourway consistent across different batches?
Wallpapers are printed in batches. Always check that the batch numbers on your roll labels match to ensure color consistency across your project.
What is the historical significance of this pattern?
Pimpernel was a favorite design of William Morris himself, famously used in the dining room of his home, Kelmscott Manor, in 1876.
Troubleshooting
Pattern alignment is off at the seams
Check if the wallpaper was hung vertically using a plumb line. Adjust the strip slightly before the adhesive sets.
Bubbles forming during installation
Use a smooth wallpaper brush or a soft plastic smoother to work air pockets towards the edges of the paper.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
For installation, ensure your wall surfaces are primed, smooth, and dry before application. Given the weight and archival nature of premium wallpaper, use a high-quality, starch-based adhesive. Because of the pattern's symmetry, always verify the batch numbers on your rolls to ensure color consistency across the entire wall. To maintain the wallpaper, avoid direct contact with harsh cleaning agents. Dusting gently with a soft, dry cloth or a microfibre duster is recommended for routine care. If liquid spills occur, dab gently with a clean, dry cloth rather than scrubbing, which could damage the surface finish.
