About this fabric

The design combines large, curling acanthus leaves in saturated marine and cobalt blues with delicate cream, pale blue and softly green floral details. Darker blue linework gives the leaves depth, while the cream background keeps the dense arrangement light rather than heavy. This wallpaper has a useable width of 52 cm, a standard length of 10.05 m and a vertical pattern repeat of 45.7 cm; the horizontal repeat is listed as 0 cm. Its supplied weight is 181 gsm.

How to use it

Use Paradise Blue to create a confident feature wall in a dining room, study or bedroom, balancing the cool blue foliage with warm timber, natural linen and understated brass. Its cream ground also helps the bold leaves sit comfortably alongside pale upholstery and painted furniture.

A cool, highly decorative botanical wallpaper that brings strong blue contrast and an airy cream ground to classic or eclectic rooms.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Leicester Paradise Blue 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.
