About this fabric

The deep blue ground reads cool and saturated, while the cream pattern picks out scrolling foliage, small blossoms and prominent upright floral forms across the design. The closely packed layout creates a fine-scale damask effect rather than an open, airy print. Supplied at a usable width of 52 cm, each standard roll measures 10.05 m and has a 13 cm vertical pattern repeat with a listed 0 cm horizontal repeat. At 183 gsm, this is a substantial wallpaper specification suited to creating a continuous decorative surface.

How to use it

Use Borage Inky Fingers where its inky blue depth can anchor a room, such as a study, snug, entrance hall or dining space. Pair the cream detailing with pale wood, aged brass or warm ivory furnishings to keep the intricate pattern legible.

Use this cool, densely patterned blue-and-cream wallpaper to bring crisp historical character to a study, hallway or dining room.

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.
