About this fabric

The background is a muted seaweed grey, while ecru leaves and bird forms stand out against curling silver-grey stems. Repeated sprays of finely drawn foliage are punctuated by pale blue-grey flowers, giving the design a gentle contrast without a strong colour clash. This wallpaper has a 52 cm vertical pattern repeat and a 52 cm usable width, allowing the detailed arrangement to read clearly across the wall. Its supplied weight is 154 gsm, with a standard length of 10.05 m.

How to use it

Use this cool grey-green colourway in a study, bedroom or sitting room with chalky neutrals, aged oak and linen-toned upholstery. Echo the pale blue-grey flowers in small decorative accents rather than introducing a brighter competing colour.

Pair this cool seaweed-grey ground with warm ivory, weathered timber and restrained blue-grey accents.

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