Persian Tulip Teal

The Unfinished Works Wallpapers WallpaperMOW0138-02

Persian Tulip Teal layers deep, muted teal teardrop motifs over a pale cream ground, with sage foliage and small coral-pink flowers bringing measured warmth to the repeating design. The overall effect is cool, detailed and distinctly botanical.

About this fabric

Large ornamental teardrops anchor the repeat, each filled with tiny cream flowers and framed by curling teal and sage leaves. Coral-pink berry-like clusters punctuate the pale cream background, preventing the blue-green palette from feeling flat or overly cool. This wallpaper has a 68.6 cm usable width and a 31.6 cm vertical pattern repeat, with no horizontal repeat specified. Supplied at 147 gsm in a standard 10.05 m length, it presents the Persian Tulip design as a structured, finely detailed wall covering.

How to use it

Pair the muted teal with chalky cream woodwork and aged timber for a calm traditional scheme, or draw out the coral accents through small-scale upholstery and accessories. Its cooler blue-green depth works especially well in studies, entrance halls and softly lit bedrooms.

Use this cool teal colourway to bring composed pattern and gentle coral accents to a traditional room.

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