lincrusta wallpaper

[euvalaka404]

I am looking to match existing wallpaper, that I am told is lincrusta.
Not sure what the style is, but it has 8" square repeating pattern.
Any one knows how I can get hold of 1 roll rather tahn having to remove all the rest and replace?
Thanks

you`ll need to go to a decorating centre, dulux etc.
it`ll be exspensive though and you`ll have to order it in. don`t know how long it will take.

Lincrusta is made by Crown. There were a lot of patterns at the turn of the century and a lot have now been discontinued. The Lincrustra brand is now owned by Akzo Noble, who make Sikkens etc. Go into a Crown decorator center and look in their books. The rolls are about 8" across as they are made of putty. They have a safety edge on them that has to be hand trimmed. Once cut to size you have to soak the backing with hot water until it becomes pliable and then use a ready mixed adhesive to put it up.

Got a feeling you might be out of luck with that pattern. There were lot of them discontinued a few years ago and they seemed to only keep the traditional ones for dado's and friezes etc. Really need to go to a crown depot and check the books. All crown papers had an RD number on them to identify them.
