GP & J Baker | Peony & Blossom

Peony & Blossom pairs the full, rounded head of the peony with smaller blossom sprays across a non-woven ground, part of the Langdale wallpaper family and printed at a generous 65 by 52 centimetre scale that lets both flowers read clearly. It is a fuller, more romantic print than the Langdale collection's smaller stitched fabrics, and reads as a proper floral rather than a texture, with enough space between motifs that the paper never feels crowded.

The paper is a 100 per cent non-woven base, 52 centimetres wide, with a 65 centimetre vertical and 52 centimetre horizontal repeat. Six colourways: Dove/Silver, Soft Aqua, Ivory/Willow, Soft Blue and Soft Grey run from cool to warm neutral, with Vintage offering a more aged, tonal alternative; Soft Blue is the one we reach for most often for its ease against most woodwork.

We would hang it in a bedroom or a formal sitting room, somewhere the peony can be given a full wall to unfold across, and it pairs well with a plain linen or a small check in one of its softer tones for curtains and cushions. Keep the rest of the room's pattern minimal so the floral carries the scheme. Sold by the roll; order a sample before committing to a full room, since the six colourways shift noticeably between daylight and lamplight.

Match the peony heads carefully at each seam so the flowers continue without an obvious break; with a 65 centimetre repeat, budget for a reasonable amount of wastage per length. Roll length is not given here, so check the label before ordering; as a rule of thumb, allow four rolls for an average wall once the repeat and any window reveals are accounted for.
