Just pure eye candy! The current issue of Elle Decor (soon to be off the stands, so hurry!) features an article and great photos of the Paris apartment of Dimonah and Mehmet Iksel, designers for the last 18 years of outrageously beautiful wall panels and papers. They are designed in France and then meticulously handpainted by artists in India.

 They have also recently introduced a line of panels that are digitally reproduced and printed on watercolor paper and they are reported to look like original qouache paintings. They are actually quite reasonable! See Iksell Decorative Arts for a tour and a real treat.
