Full details
The Harlequin Wallpaper Mala in Grey is designed for homeowners and interior decorators looking to add a sophisticated, Art Deco-inspired statement to their living spaces. Its standout benefit is the interplay between the chalky, matte ground and the striking, metallic gold palm leaf patterns that catch the light beautifully. While this wallpaper offers a bold, confident aesthetic, potential users should note that its high-contrast design requires careful planning to ensure it complements existing furniture without overwhelming smaller, cluttered rooms.

FAQs
Is the Mala wallpaper suitable for kitchens or bathrooms?
This wallpaper is designed for dry interior rooms. Avoid high-humidity areas as moisture can impact the adhesion and the metallic finish.
Does the wallpaper come pre-pasted?
No, this is a traditional application wallpaper which requires the use of an appropriate wallpaper paste.
Can I use this on all four walls?
While you can, the bold nature of the palm leaf pattern is generally recommended as a feature wall to prevent the room from feeling too busy.
How do I calculate how many rolls I need?
Measure the height and width of your walls, then factor in the pattern repeat. It is always recommended to add 10% extra for trimming and waste.
What kind of lighting works best with this wallpaper?
Warm, indirect lighting or spotlights will best highlight the gold metallic palm leaves and enhance the contrast against the matte grey background.
Troubleshooting
Visible seams between wallpaper strips
Ensure that the wall was properly primed before application and that you are not over-stretching the paper while hanging.
Bubbles forming after drying
Small bubbles can sometimes be gently pricked with a fine needle to release air and smoothed down with a clean, soft cloth.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Installation requires standard wallpapering tools including a sharp trimming blade, a quality wallcovering paste, and a smoothing tool.
Setup Steps:
- Prepare the wall surface by removing old paper and filling any cracks.
- Apply a coat of primer to ensure consistent suction across the wall.
- Measure and cut your drops, accounting for the pattern repeat.
- Apply the paste evenly, following the manufacturer's specific instructions for the weight of the paper.
- Hang carefully, smoothing from the center outwards to avoid trapping bubbles.
Care: To maintain the finish, lightly dust with a dry, soft cloth. Avoid harsh chemical cleaners, as these may damage the metallic gold leaf detailing.
