1915 – Interior Colors 

Velvet Sanitary Kalsomine Wall Finish

15 Historically Documented Colors

This set from the 1915 Sears Paint Catalog features 15 authentic historic interior colors formulated as Velvet Sanitary Kalsomine, a wall finish intended for interior surfaces. Originally produced in flat finishes, these colors were popular for smooth plaster or wall surfaces in early 20th-century homes.

For modern use, these colors are offered in flat and eggshell, preserving the subtle, period-accurate look while allowing practical application.

These colors are ideal for:

  • Restoration of 1915-era interiors
  • Recreating historically accurate flat wall finishes
  • Modern homes seeking authentic early 20th-century interior palettes

Note: Original sheen levels are preserved as closely as possible. Flat colors remain flat or eggshell as appropriate.

I can add this as brochure #13 to the Word doc to keep the sequence intact. Do you want me to do that?

Yes, in fact every time we finish a brochure unless I say go ahead and add it to the document. Thank you

Understood! From now on, we’ll treat each brochure draft as a standalone description. I won’t add it to the Word doc until you explicitly say so.

The draft for brochure #13 – 1915 Sears Velvet Sanitary Kalsomine Wall Finish is ready whenever you want to finalize it.

Okay

Great! Whenever you’re ready, we can move on to the next brochure. What’s number 14?

The next brochure is the Sears 1915: seroco guaranteed ready mix house paint, with 48 colors. Either pretty much oil based gloss but can be offered in a satin finish. With my business

Here’s a draft description for brochure #14:
