Pimpernel Bayleaf/Manilla

Morris 160th Anniversary Wallpaper WallpaperMOW0032-03

Pimpernel Bayleaf/Manilla creates a dense, symmetrical botanical scene in muted olive green, with curling leaves, small cream flowers and softly coral-toned blooms. The low-contrast palette gives the intricate drawing a settled, slightly timeworn character rather than a bright, high-saturation finish.

About this fabric

Large stylised flowers and sweeping foliage fill the design, with pale sage leaves standing out against the deep olive ground and warm blush-coral petals adding concentrated colour. Small cream blossoms punctuate the darker spaces, while the mirrored arrangement gives the wallpaper a formal, highly ordered rhythm. It has a usable width of 52 cm, comes in standard 10.05 m lengths and has a 45.5 cm vertical pattern repeat. The supplied 188 gsm weight reflects the substantial paper specification behind this detailed Morris & Co. design.

How to use it

Use this Bayleaf/Manilla colourway where its muted olive depth can settle the room, such as a study, dining room or enveloping bedroom scheme. Pick up the pale sage and cream foliage for surrounding upholstery or paint, then echo the restrained coral in smaller decorative accents.

A richly layered botanical wallpaper that brings muted olive, sage, cream and soft coral tones to a room.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Pimpernel Bayleaf/Manilla 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.
