Nilaya W046D297S75 Sabyasachi Wallpaper - Tanchoi

The Sabysachi for Nilaya creations are as rich and layered as the muse that inspires them – the vast and varied theatre that is India. Add to that a sublime eclecticism, an original eye and a design instinct that is in a class by itself the Sabyasachi for Nilaya Wallpaper Collection is one of its kind.

Whenever you think of blue, think of Jodhpur. Indigo, Prussian, brooding siyahi or fading asmani. Bandhanis, Mothras, painted walls, hand painted pottery, block prints, enamel, rugs and dhurries, all in myriad shades of “Jodhpur” blues, inspire this collection of wallpapers. Travel through the by lanes of the blue city and soak in the ambience of quiet dignity, understated elegance and almost feral sophistication; all expressed in shades of blue.

Sumptuous brocades, an eye for detail, impossible intricacies and a feral appetite for excellence inspire Tanchoi. A tribute to one of the most  glittering royal textiles of India, this wallpaper is both exuberant and genteel at the same time.

Dimensions of 1Roll of wallpaper - 21.2 inches x 30 feet.

Hanging Instructions

Surface Preparation :
Any old wallpaper should be removed. Walls should be clean, dry and smooth. Prepare surface with a premixed, universal wallcovering primer.

1. Measuring from a corner of your starting wall, mark a vertical plumb line at a distance of 1" less than the paper width.
2. Cut your first strip of wallpaper 4" longer than the wall height you intend to cover.
3. For Prepasted Paper - Roll the cut strip loosely with pattern side in, paste side out. Submerge rolled strip in warm water for 30 seconds to activate paste.
For Unpasted Paper : Using a clear, light-medium weight, pre-mixed adhesive, apply an even film of paste to the back of the paper, moving the paste brush or applicator from the center to the edge.
4. Fold moistened strip paste-to-paste, and allow to set for 3 minutes.
5. Carry the wallcovering to the wall. Place one edge of your strip along the vertical plumb line and allow the remainder of the strip to go into and around the corner.
6. Smooth out bubbles using a smoothing brush. Trim top and bottom with a straigth edge and a razor knife. Wipe each strip clean with water and sponge.
7. Using pattern match at baseboard or bottom of the strip and ceiling as reference, determine the length of your next strip, allowing extra for trimming. Then follow step #3 as above.
8. Slide the next strip into position with its edge butted against the edge of the preceding strip. Do not overlap seams. Gently roll butted seams with a seam roller. Be sure to match design of the adjescent strip at eye level.

Repeat steps #6, #7 and #8.
