Damask vs Metallic Geometric Wallpaper: What's the Difference?

Quick answer

Damask: Damask takes its name from woven silks traded through Damascus. Metallic Geometric: Metallic geometrics use mica- and foil-effect inks to draw lattices, rings and frets that shimmer as the light moves across the wall. In practice: Hang damask centred on a chimney breast or bed so the medallions line up symmetrically. Small spaces like cloakrooms and halls are made for a little glamour. Our range has 105 damask and 40 metallic geometric designs.
