About this wallpaper

The colourway is led by a muted soft blue background, with deep nettle-green leaves adding contrast and brown stems bringing a warmer, earthy note. Cream peony heads are picked out with delicate dotted detailing, giving the dense foliage pattern extra lightness and visual depth. The supplied specification lists a 52 cm usable width, a 22.9 cm vertical pattern repeat and no horizontal repeat. It is supplied in a standard 10.05 m length with a listed weight of 150 gsm.

How to use it

Use this cool blue colourway in a study, bedroom or country sitting room, pairing its nettle foliage with warm wood, chalky cream and restrained terracotta accents. The cream flowers can also be echoed through painted furniture or plain linen textiles.

Use the cool blue ground with warm timber, cream upholstery and natural textures for a balanced botanical scheme.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Peony Trellis Soft Blue/Nettle 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.
