About this fabric

The pattern is built from oversized pale blue-grey and thyme-green floral medallions, curling leafy stems and smaller cream-and-coral blossoms, all set against the saturated indigo background visible across the design. Compared with a warmer navy, this colourway reads distinctly cool and slightly softened, while the coral and ivory details add controlled warmth without disturbing its composed depth. The wallpaper has a 52 cm usable width and a 10.05 m standard length, with a 45.7 cm vertical pattern repeat and no horizontal repeat specified. At 150 gsm, it offers a substantial printed-paper specification for planning the repeat across a wall.

How to use it

Use this indigo colourway to give a dining room, study or bedroom a deep blue architectural backdrop, balancing its thyme foliage with pale woods, chalky upholstery and small coral accents. Keep surrounding patterns restrained so the large floral medallions remain the room’s focal point.

A cool indigo ground gives the pale thyme foliage and coral-pink floral details a striking, heritage-inspired contrast.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Iris & Rose Indigo/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.
