Bespoke, hand-painted chinoiserie reproduction wallpapers from companies like de Gournay or Gracie are exquisite … and expensive! These wallpaper panels are very high end, can cost thousands of dollars and are typically only available through decorators. A while back I wrote a post on ways to get the de Gournay look for less and I learned that many of you were searching for affordable alternatives. I’ve you’ve been looking for ways to get this look at a more accessible price point, you’ll be pleased to know about my latest discovery which is the new V&A collection for Graham & Brown. It features four colorways of a beautiful Chinoiserie peony design reproduced from a fragment of early 19th century hand-painted wallpaper from China that is part of the Victoria and Albert Museum collection. And at $85 a roll, this option is the perfect alternative and a fraction of the cost of de Gournay or Gracie. Here’s a look at these stunning wallpapers:
