French (Paris) circa 1780

This border was used with Réveillon Damask and is most certainly also a Réveillon product. The architectural aspects of the motifs were intended to imitate stucco or carved plaster work and were generally printed with tone-on-tone colors such as stone or grisaille. First developed in the 1760s, this manner of ornamentation remained popular throughout the remainder of the 18th century.
