About this wallpaper

This Morris & Co. wallpaper has a 58.4 cm vertical pattern repeat, with no horizontal repeat specified, allowing the large lily and foliage arrangement to flow naturally across the wall. The 52 cm usable width and 10.05 m standard length are suited to planning a continuous botanical installation. Its listed weight is 130 gsm. In this colourway, the blue lilies provide the strongest accent, while the pale sage leaves and warm cream flowers soften the overall contrast against the ivory background.

How to use it

Pair this cool cornflower-and-sage colourway with chalky blue paint, natural timber and warm cream upholstery. Use it on all four walls where the ivory ground can keep the large botanical repeat feeling light, or as a feature behind a bed or console.

Use this cool blue botanical wallpaper to bring gentle colour and leafy movement to a bedroom, sitting room or garden-facing space.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Lent Lily Cornflower Blue 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.
