Crown Wallpaper
Crown Wallpaper, also known as the Crown Wallpaper Company, was an agglomeration of some of the largest wallpaper manufacturers in the United Kingdom in 1899.
Overview
[edit]The agglomeration included founding member Arthur Sanderson & Sons Ltd. By 1904, the group had acquired the majority of companies specialising in relief decoration, which included Lincrusta-Walton and Anaglypta.[1]
The company had premises in Darwen, Lancashire.[2] The company eventually transformed to become Crown Ltd.[1]
The Crown Wallpaper Archive, comprising 5,000 wallpaper samples and pattern books from the early 1950s to the late 1960s, is held at the Museum of Domestic Design and Architecture.[3][4]
