Paulownia Wallcovering Mercury

About this fabric

This Mercury colourway reads as a cool, near-charcoal grey, with lighter and darker threads of tone running vertically through the image. The fine striations create a gently uneven surface effect, adding depth while keeping the overall impression restrained. Subtle tonal shifts stop the dark shade from appearing flat and give the wallcovering a softly atmospheric quality. No performance features are noted for this wallpaper.

How to use it

Use Mercury on a feature wall or throughout a study, dining room or snug where its cool charcoal tone can provide a calm, architectural backdrop. Pair it with pale timber, smoked glass and warm off-white upholstery to balance its depth.

Use this deep grey wallcovering to add quiet vertical texture and architectural depth to a room.

Paulownia Wallcovering Mercury is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
