The walls were a very important part of the interior of Georgia and much attention was paid to their treatment. Typically, the wall area is divided into three sections: a socket / paneling, incorporating the socket / base, base panel and the railway (which would be at a height of approximately 75 cm/2ft 6 inches) half the field or section of the wall formed by the upper frieze and cornice.

At the beginning of the period most likely these panels were made of oak and finished with a simple wax polish. Later, with the introduction of conifers, the panels may have been painted, but rather gray color, or given a faux wood finish.

Textile curtains and carpets were fashionable and beautiful fabric walls as we know, is also popular (except in the dining room, where food smells could be trapped). Fabrics like silk and wool damask were attached to walls above the base height by means of wooden slats and finished with a gold fillet. Wallpapers expensive (including the types and patterns of sheep with oriental themes) in sheets rather than rolls were highly prized and most often connected to a fabric backing before being suspended, allowing them to be removed at owners party.

Floor

Exposed bare wooden planks or parquet, just washed and waxed (and, for convenience, covered with an Oriental rug in the area) are typical treatments of Georgia. For alternative coverage, floor cloth canvas painted and varnished can be incorporated into the scheme. The aisles and larger areas of a house floor, stone or marble, possibly in a classic pattern, was considered more appropriate.
