Fabric Backed Wallpaper Biography
In the early 1600s, the French introduced flocked wallpaper. Flock is powdered wool or silk left over from the manufacture of cloth. The background color was applied first and the design was then stenciled on with a slow-drying adhesive. The flock was scattered onto the adhesive and a velvet-like pile was left on the design. Flocked wallpaper that imitated cut velvet was very popular but more expensive. English flocked papers (papiers d’Angleterre) were considered superior to French and fans of the English product included Madame de Pompadour, who used English flock papers in her apartments at Versailles and in the Chateau de Champs.
