About this wallpaper

This 26 cm-wide wallpaper has a 36.4 cm horizontal pattern repeat, while the supplied vertical repeat is 0 cm. The visible frieze combines curling olive and thyme-toned leaves with coral-red flowers, pale blue-grey accents and small cream-gold floral centres. Against the dark indigo background, the foliage reads muted and earthy while the red details provide controlled warmth. Supplied at 130 gsm and a standard length of 10.05 m, it is suited to creating a continuous decorative border.

How to use it

Use the cool indigo ground as a dramatic frame around a room, above panelling or along a dado line. Pick up its olive foliage with subdued green paint and echo the coral-red flowers through small, carefully chosen accents.

Use this richly detailed indigo frieze to add a distinctly Morris-inspired border around a room.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ornamental Frieze 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.
