About this wallpaper

The colourway combines muted aqua-blue and blue-grey detailing with a parchment-like beige background, giving the design a cool yet softened appearance rather than a bright or saturated blue. The illustrated pattern features curling branches, layered leaves, perched birds and repeated figures in traditional chinoiserie scenes. Its approximate repeat is 46cm vertically by 68.5cm horizontally, allowing the narrative motifs to flow across the wall. Supplied as 100% paper, this is a decorative wallpaper rather than a textile furnishing fabric.

How to use it

Use the cool aqua tones in a bedroom, hallway or drawing room with warm ivory, natural timber and aged brass. The beige ground can also sit comfortably beside linen, stone and muted blue-grey furnishings.

Use this cool aqua chinoiserie against warm neutrals for a softly historic, collected interior.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Toile Chinoise Wallpaper Aqua 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.
