Dresser Stenciled Walls

Stenciled designs inspired by Christopher Dresser, for a 19th century dining room. This room in an 1850s house was “updated” in the 1870s with the wood-grained wainscoting. The wood is actually redwood, but is grained it to look like golden oak, which is how it had been painted originally. The stenciled fill pattern is adapted from a Christopher Dresser design from 1868, and the frieze is an original design of by Adrian Card in the style of Dresser.
