Fancy Ashlar

French or possibly American, circa 1800

This pattern is licensed to Adelphi Paper Hangings by the Cooper-Hewitt, Smithsonian Design Museum.

Description

This unusual ashlar, with its fancifully specific veined stone delineated by a double dotted band, is difficult to assign a country of origin. The boldness of design and color choices suggests it could be French, while the loose rendering of the marbling may give credence to an American manufacturer.

Ashlars of this scale were intended to be installed in large public spaces such as hallways and staircases.

Imperial Measurements: Repeat 18 ⅞ inches, width 18 ⅝ inches, length 11 yards, straight match.

Metric Measurements: 47.0 cm, 47.3 cm, 10 m.
