Toile Chinoise Wallpaper Blue pairs a pale, warm cream ground with softly faded blue-grey branches, birds and lively chinoiserie figures. The generous pattern feels airy rather than dense, with plenty of ground colour showing between the illustrated motifs.

About this fabric

Made from 100% paper, this wallcovering features a pale cream background printed with muted blue-grey flowering branches, perched birds and small chinoiserie figures. The blue is cool and gently weathered in appearance, giving the scene a quieter, more softened character than a saturated navy design. An approximately 46cm vertical repeat and 68.5cm horizontal repeat create a substantial, clearly legible pattern across the wall. The fine illustrated detail and formal arrangement are especially visible against the light ground.

How to use it

Use it across all four walls where the pale cream ground can brighten the room, or frame it within panelling for a more tailored treatment. Pair the muted blue with aged timber, chalky painted furniture and warm linen to balance its cool, storybook quality.

Use this cool blue-and-cream chinoiserie wallcovering to bring softly detailed traditional character to bedrooms, hallways or dining rooms.

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.
