Alfred Peats & Co. IOD Paint Inlay by Iron Orchid Designs
Recreate the timeless elegance of Victorian wallpaper with the Alfred Peats & Co. IOD Paint Inlay by Iron Orchid Designs. Inspired by the celebrated wallpaper designs of Alfred Peats & Co. — one of America’s most beloved wallpaper manufacturers of the late 19th and early 20th centuries — this stunning paint inlay collection brings their signature style of dusty blue roses, golden scrollwork, and delicate trailing florals to your furniture and home décor projects.
The Paint Inlay technique is beautifully simple: apply the sheet over wet paint, smooth it down, peel it back, and the design is left behind in the paint — creating a result that looks hand-painted and utterly one-of-a-kind. The soft, muted palette and all-over repeat pattern make this inlay especially versatile for large furniture pieces, cabinet doors, drawer fronts, and accent walls.
