About this fabric

The dense botanical layout shows overlapping, arching boughs with narrow ribbed leaves, creating a lively surface rather than an open, airy repeat. Its bitter-chocolate background gives the green foliage noticeable depth, while the muted red stems prevent the colourway from feeling flat or purely tonal. This wallpaper has a usable width of 52 cm, a standard length of 10.05 m and a vertical pattern repeat of 46 cm; the horizontal repeat is 0 cm. At 192 gsm, it has a substantial specification suited to a richly enveloping wall treatment.

How to use it

Use it across a reading nook, study or garden-facing room where the dark brown ground can echo timber, leather or bronze. Balance the dense foliage with quiet sage upholstery, warm cream linens and olive accents.

Use this deep brown botanical with sage, olive and warm timber tones for a richly layered interior.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Willow Boughs Bitter Chocolate 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.
