About this fabric

This wallcovering is printed with repeated rose-and-leaf sprigs, including delicate blue-grey outlines and gently washed blue shading within the blooms. Against the warm ivory ground, the colourway reads muted and airy rather than crisp or saturated, with fine botanical details visible between the larger flower heads. The approximate vertical repeat is 30.4cm and the horizontal repeat is 17cm. Supplied in 100% paper, it has the smooth, flat appearance of a printed wallpaper rather than a woven textile.

How to use it

Use the cool blue-grey flowers to bring a calm, lightly historic feel to a bedroom, sitting room or garden-facing hallway. Pair the ivory ground with pale painted wood, soft grey upholstery and restrained blue accents so the floral detail remains the focus.

A softly traditional floral wallcovering for rooms that suit a cool, quietly decorative palette.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Bowood Wallpaper Blue/Grey 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.
