Wallpaper - Peacock and Peony Chinoiserie Navy

Graceful peacocks rest among curving stems of blooming peonies in our Peacock and Peony Chinoiserie Navy wallpaper, created by Mairin Kareli. The design pairs deep navy tones with muted floral hues, set against a softly clouded background reminiscent of historic plasterwork and classical oil painting. We particularly like how the flowing vertical branches give height and movement to the wall without overwhelming the room. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this wallpaper brings an artistic, heritage feel to modern interiors.

In the room

The vertical flow and rich, shadowy backdrop make this wallpaper especially effective in rooms where you want to create an intimate, enveloping atmosphere. In a dining room or bedroom, placing the mural across a main feature wall behind a table or headboard allows the graceful bird motifs and delicate peony blooms to take centre stage. The dark navy ground absorbs light beautifully in evening settings, whilst generous daylight brings out the finer painted nuances in the plumage and petals.

In a home office, library, or hallway, the design adds immediate architectural depth. Because the pattern relies on elegant vertical trails rather than a dense, solid grid, it works comfortably in smaller spaces like a powder room or dressing room without feeling crowded.

Styling it

To complement the historic chinoiserie aesthetic, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with furniture that balances its ornate detailing.

• Darker timber furniture in rich mahogany, walnut, or antique oak echoes the classic heritage feel and grounds the deep blue backdrop.
• Muted brass or antique bronze accents, such as lighting fixtures or subtle picture frames, pick up the warm undertones in the floral branches.
• Soft, unpatterned fabrics in dusky rose, warm taupe, or deep midnight blue allow the intricate wall murals to remain the primary visual focus.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on deep navy and shadowy charcoal blues, balanced by the muted rose, antique pink, and soft ochre of the peony blossoms and curving branches.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls, woodwork, or cornicing, consider pairing this design with off-whites that have a gentle warm undertone to soften the contrast. Deep ink navy or muted slate tones work wonderfully on skirting boards and doors if you prefer a cohesive, colour-drenched look. For soft furnishings and decor, subtle accents of dusty blush, warm stone, or antique brass harmonize effortlessly with the floral details.
