About this wallpaper

The design is filled with curling leaves, fine tendrils and pointed floral forms arranged in a formal repeating structure. This colourway reads as muted and gently weathered rather than bright, with cool green depth offset by pale cream and restrained ochre highlights. The supplied specification gives a usable width of 68.6 cm, a standard length of 10.05 m and a vertical pattern repeat of 34.3 cm; the horizontal repeat is listed as 0 cm. Its specified weight is 153 gsm.

How to use it

Pair the sage-and-forest ground with warm ivory, aged timber and muted brass to draw out the ochre details without competing with the intricate foliage. It would give a study or bedroom a settled, historic botanical mood.

Use this richly detailed green wallpaper to bring historic botanical character to a study, sitting room or bedroom.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Snakeshead Forest/Thyme 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.
