About this fabric

The detailed animal-and-botanical artwork is printed on a 52 cm usable width, with the zebra, leopard, birds and foliage arranged across the cream background. Its 52 cm vertical pattern repeat allows the illustrated scene to continue regularly up the wall, while no horizontal repeat is recorded. The standard roll length is 10.05 m and the wallpaper weighs 150 gsm. Charcoal and black outlines anchor the design, with olive green leaves, ochre-gold accents and soft grey animal shading keeping the overall palette warm but not brightly saturated.

How to use it

Use Protea Gold where its cream background can stay visible, such as a feature wall in an eclectic sitting room or bedroom. Echo the artwork’s olive foliage and muted gold accents in painted woodwork, textiles or accessories rather than introducing a competing strong colour.

Use the warm cream ground to balance the charcoal animal outlines, olive foliage and small flashes of gold in an eclectic room scheme.

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.
