About this fabric

The Dove Grey background gives this colourway a cool, quiet foundation, allowing the illustrated foliage and flowers to build depth across the design. Large cream and taupe acanthus leaves curl around muted blue-grey stems, while burgundy buds and accents provide a darker counterpoint. The repeat is highly symmetrical, with central sprays of flowers and leaves balanced by smaller blossoms and curling tendrils at the edges. Its densely drawn botanical detail creates a formal, decorative wall finish rather than a loose or informal floral effect.

How to use it

Use this cool grey colourway in a dining room, study or bedroom with ivory upholstery, weathered timber and muted blue accents. Deep burgundy accessories will echo the small dark details in the botanical repeat.

Pair the cool grey ground with warm ivory, muted blue and deep burgundy accents to draw out the wallpaper’s intricate botanical palette.

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.
