Seaweed Ebony/Poppy

Seaweed Ebony/Poppy combines a deep ebony-olive ground with curling pale foliage, dusty pink poppies and intricate botanical tracery. The dark background gives the repeated design a particularly rich, jewel-like depth.

About this fabric

This Morris & Co. wallpaper is printed with densely interlaced scrolling foliage, rounded poppy blooms and small ornamental forms picked out in pale olive, cream and muted pink. Against the ebony-olive ground, the pink flowers provide concentrated flashes of colour while the lighter tendrils keep the repeat finely legible. The roll has a 52 cm usable width and a standard length of 10.05 m. Its pattern repeat is listed as 52 cm vertically and 0 cm horizontally, with a supplied weight of 154 gsm.

How to use it

Use this Seaweed colourway across a feature wall or enveloping study, where its cool, dark olive ground can sit comfortably with aged wood, tobacco leather and warm ivory textiles. Keep surrounding furnishings quieter so the poppy blooms and pale foliage remain the room’s main colour story.

Use this richly detailed dark colourway to create a dramatic Morris-inspired backdrop behind furniture in warm neutral or antique finishes.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Seaweed Ebony/Poppy 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.
