Pierre Frey | Wallpaper Crespieres – Bleu Ancien

Crespieres is a design formerly printed with a copper roller, evoking the story of the children Paul and Virginie. It belongs to the narrative tradition of wallpaper — literature translated into repeat, episodes gathered for the wall — and carries the particular fineness of line that roller printing preserved. A period piece in the best sense: sentimental in subject, exacting in execution, and quietly companionable in a room.
