Wallpaper - Papilion Chase Blue

Created by Janelle Penner, our Papilion Chase Blue wallpaper brings an illustrative entomological motif to life on a soft teal blue backdrop. Delicate moths, detailed beetles, and stylized wildflowers are arranged in a balanced repeat with a painted, watercolor-like character. Earthy tones of terracotta, warm ochre, and sage green give the detailed figures a vintage charm reminiscent of classic natural history plates. Produced made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings an artistic and whimsical feel to any interior setting.

In the room

In an entryway or powder room, the balanced repeat creates immediate character without overwhelming a compact footprint. The rhythmic placement of moths, beetles, and floral sprigs offers visual interest up close, making it an engaging backdrop for transition spaces.

We also see this design working beautifully in a bedroom or study. On an accent wall behind a bed or desk, the soft teal blue foundation maintains a calm atmosphere, while the warm terracotta and ochre accents introduce subtle energy. Because the pattern has a steady vertical and horizontal flow, it works equally well across a wider living room wall where the full cadence of the insect and botanical motifs can be appreciated.

Styling it

The heritage, English country feel of this design pairs naturally with warm wood furniture, such as antique pine, mid-tone oak, or painted cabinetry in muted cream.

To complement the illustrative quality of the wallpaper, we suggest keeping surrounding accessories understated. Natural woven elements, simple ceramic lamps, and linen or cotton curtains in soft off-white or muted terracotta balance the detailed artwork while reinforcing its earthy character.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is built on a muted teal blue ground, layered with warm terracotta, burnt orange, golden ochre, and soft sage green details.

When choosing paint for adjoining walls, trim, or baseboards, soft warm whites and ivory create a clean, gentle framing. For a richer, more cohesive look, pulling a muted terracotta or deep rust from the insect wings onto trim or accent pieces adds warmth. Alternatively, a pale sage or soft slate blue creates a quiet, monochromatic harmony that lets the wall murals take center stage.
