Decorating With Zuber Scenic Wallpaper

Here in Richmond they currently demolished an antique home that I visited for a special fund elevating occasion several years in the past. The element I don't forget most changed into the beautiful panoramic wall mural in the eating room which resembled the only below called Hindustan. I don't forget the elephants and the tremendous colours. I do not know for certain however could be willing to wager that a second thought turned into by no means given to saving that mural which I am satisfied turned into a Zuber. I changed into no longer aware of the homes demolition till it become all over or I would possibly have tried to attain it. Oh well, you already know what they say approximately crying over spilled milk.

Zuber & Cie, founded as Jean Zuber et Cie is a French Manufacture de Papier Peints et Tissus (French for: painted wallpaper and fabrics) company which claims to be the last factory in the world to produce woodblock printed wallpapers and furnishing fabrics. Still the crème de la crème of wallpaper makers, is especially known for their scenic wall panels.For its production, Zuber & Cie uses the original woodblocks (more than 100,000) engraved from the XVII and XIX century

Since its founding in 1797 by Jean Zuber, Zuber & Cie has maintained its headquarters at Rixheim, France.

Zuber & Cie has showrooms in Paris and Nice, New York, Los Angeles, London and Dubai and is still producing wallpaper using eighteenth-century techniques.

Beautiful samples of wallpapers. Each design was hand carved from pear wood and made into wood blocks. They are kept in a controlled climate and allowed to rest for several years between printings.

After the French revolution and inspired by the large painted Chinese screens that were being imported, the wallpaper industry began to offer panoramic wallpaper. It provided an (almost) instant gigantic 360 degree mural painting of endless exotic vistas. This mural is called "Les Monuments de Paris".

This wall treatment was based on Jacques-Gerard Milberts engravings of 1820s American landscapes that were admired in Europe at the time. The sky is hand pre painted using watercolors before 767 wooden blocks printed the scene using 18 tempera paints. These blocks have been preserved and are registered as a French national heritage. This is one of the five scenes originally depicted in the series Views of North America. The Five are: New York Bay, Military Review at West Point, Boston Harbour, Natural Bridge and Niagara Falls.
