Phillip Jeffries wallpaper

Phillip Jeffries wallpaper is a material you judge with your hand as much as your eye, and that changes what it does once it is on the wall. American rooms give it space to work: broad drywall planes without paneling, open plans running from the kitchen through the seating area, and ceilings of 9 ft (2.74 m) or 10 ft (3.05 m) that leave a lot of uninterrupted surface. Texture is what fills that expanse; a flat print rarely manages it.

Woven naturals or vinyl: where to start in the range

The collection falls into two camps. One is the woven side, where the weft stays visible and the surface keeps a slight irregularity: the grasscloth wallpaper the brand is best known for, which sits in our catalog next to related weaves such as paperweave and raffia. The other is a deep vinyl program that carries the appearance of fibers such as raffia, linen or silk on a surface that takes daily wear and stays easy to maintain. Picking the material before the color is the fastest route through the 200-plus designs listed here.

Rooms that suit the brand's papers

The powder room is the usual first project: four short walls, no daylight to fight, and a surface that guests notice on the way past. Entryways and stairwells take it just as well, though a hallway that catches shoulders and luggage argues for vinyl wallpaper over an open weave. Dining rooms and primary bedrooms are where the deeper reliefs earn their place. Behind a desk, a quiet linen or textured wallpaper keeps a home office calm on camera.

How the texture reads under recessed lighting

Downlights rake across a relief surface and exaggerate every line in it; a table lamp at eye level softens the same panel. A silk-look ground can shift from matte to luminous between morning and evening. That is why we send samples first: on a screen, these designs never show the depth they have in your own light. Hold the piece against the actual wall, at the hour you use the room most.

Installation, and who should handle it

Woven and relief wall coverings reward an installer who has handled them before: seams and alignment are less forgiving than on a standard print. This line is worth booking a professional for. Specifiers on commercial jobs can start from the PJ Contract listing.

Buying Phillip Jeffries wallpaper from a European dealer

We are an official dealer, so what you see here is the current collection; the brand puts its own stock at roughly a million yards. Orders to the United States travel with duties and import fees already settled, so nothing is collected at the door. Send us your wall measurements in feet and inches and we will go through quantities with you before you commit to an order.
