Acanthus Teal

William Morris Designs Wallpaper WallpaperCCW0088-04

Acanthus Teal pairs a cool, saturated blue-teal ground with sweeping cream acanthus leaves and finely drawn botanical detail. The generous scrolling foliage creates a richly layered, distinctly Morris-inspired wall pattern.

About this fabric

This wallpaper features curling acanthus stems, serrated leaves and rounded floral forms in tonal teal and blue, picked out with warm ivory and dark printed outlines. The cool teal base gives the design depth, while the pale leaves lift the pattern and make the scrolling movement especially clear. It has a usable width of 52 cm, a 31.8 cm vertical pattern repeat and a standard length of 10.05 m. At 150 gsm, it is a lightweight wallcovering suited to repeating the large botanical layout across a room.

How to use it

Use Acanthus Teal on all four walls where its cool blue-green depth can become enveloping, or pair it with ivory woodwork and warm timber to balance the crisp pale foliage. Brass lighting and rust or ochre accents can add warmth without competing with the detailed teal pattern.

Use this cool teal colourway to bring dramatic botanical movement to a study, dining room or richly layered sitting room.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Acanthus Teal without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
