Tabor Wallpaper Indigo presents a finely drawn, close-set chevron in softened indigo and pale grey, giving the surface a cool, gently textured appearance. Its small-scale geometry remains intricate on close inspection while reading as a calm field from a distance.

About this fabric

The image shows narrow, repeated V-shaped lines, with muted indigo alternating against a light grey ground rather than a bright, high-contrast blue. The subtle tonal variation across the surface softens the regular zigzag and gives the paper a lightly tactile, woven-looking impression. Tabor is made from 100% paper and has an approximate repeat of 1cm vertically by 5cm horizontally. As a wallpaper, this compact repeat can create a consistently patterned wall without the motif becoming visually oversized.

How to use it

Use this cool indigo colourway in a study, hallway or bedroom alongside chalky whites, pale timber and warm taupe upholstery. The softened blue-grey tone also works well as a restrained geometric layer behind deeper navy or natural linen accents.

Use the cool, softened indigo chevron as a quiet geometric backdrop with warm neutrals or pale natural woods.

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.
