About this fabric

The design is set against a cool, blue-grey slate ground, with paired birds, curling leaves and clusters of flowers picked out in blush pink, ivory, sage and warm ochre. The blush accents soften the depth of the slate without making the overall scheme feel sugary, while the fine botanical detail gives the surface a densely illustrated appearance. This wallpaper has a useable width of 52 cm and is supplied in a standard 10.05 m length. The vertical pattern repeat is 30.3 cm, the supplied horizontal repeat is 0 cm, and the listed weight is 150 gsm.

How to use it

Use this colourway across a dining room, study or bedroom wall where the slate ground can provide depth behind pale upholstery and warm timber. Echo the blush highlights in small accessories, while ivory and muted sage keep the elaborate bird-and-flower pattern balanced.

Use the cool slate ground to temper the blush florals, pairing it with warm ivory, natural wood and muted sage accents.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Strawberry Thief Slate/Blush 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.
