About this fabric

This large-scale wallpaper combines delicate floral sprays with framed scenic vignettes, including architectural structures, ornamental vessels and groups of figures. Its powder-blue linework has a slightly softened, almost porcelain-like quality against the light ground, giving the colourway a cool and quietly decorative character. The design is made from 100% Non Woven and has a 59cm vertical half-drop with an approximately 70cm horizontal repeat. The generous repeat allows the garden, architectural and figurative elements to flow continuously across the wall.

How to use it

Use Saphir in a bedroom, sitting room or garden-facing corridor where its cool blue tone can echo painted joinery, porcelain accents or pale upholstery. In a smaller room, let the light ground preserve brightness while the large repeat supplies the main decorative focus.

Use this cool blue-and-white scenic paper to bring layered chinoiserie detail to a calm, collected interior.

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.
