FAQs
What is the historical significance of this pattern?

Does this wallpaper come in other colors?
Yes, the Pimpernel design is available in various colorways, including Black and alternative Blue variations.
Is this wallpaper suitable for bathrooms?
This paper is designed for interior spaces; however, it is not specifically treated for high-humidity environments like bathrooms.
Can I use this for a feature wall?
Absolutely. The bold nature of the Pimpernel pattern makes it an excellent choice for a single statement feature wall.
How do I calculate how many rolls I need?
Measure the height and width of your wall, then factor in the pattern repeat distance to ensure you have enough coverage.
What is the best way to clean the wallpaper?
Use a light dusting with a soft cloth. Do not use water or liquid cleaners as they can damage the paper surface.
Troubleshooting
Visible seams between strips
Ensure that the wallpaper is not over-stretched during application and that the edges are correctly butt-joined without overlapping.
Pattern does not align correctly
Check the pattern repeat specifications and ensure each strip is cut allowing for the necessary overlap to match the trellis geometry.
Bubbles forming under the paper
Use a wallpaper smoothing tool to work air pockets from the center toward the edges immediately after applying the strip to the wall.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Proper surface preparation is essential for a professional result. Ensure your walls are clean, dry, and primed before beginning. Due to the intricate nature of the pattern, it is recommended to use a high-quality wallpaper adhesive appropriate for the weight of the paper. For care, gently wipe with a soft, dry cloth to remove dust. Avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive sponges, as these may damage the surface finish. Always order enough rolls from the same batch number (MPN: MFRW217365) to guarantee consistent color matching across the entire wall.
