Silver grounds in Schumacher wallpaper

Silver grounds in Schumacher wallpaper are the cool metallic and the gray-silver inks used in geometrics and small textures. They sharpen a modern room and can look cold next to honey-colored floors unless the rest of the scheme agrees.

As with gold, a silver thumbnail overstates the shine. Sample it, and read whether the silver is a metallic material or simply the color name of a matte print before you order a full run.
