Wallpaper - Samarkand Ferns, Robin's Egg

Our Samarkand Ferns wallpaper in Robin's Egg brings together a rich teal blue ground with alternating vertical stripes of stylized botanical forms. Created by E. A. Séguy, the composition arranges delicate red branches and swirling green fern-like motifs inside cream panels framed by subtle dashed borders. The structured repeat and decorative Art Nouveau rhythm give the design a balanced, heritage character with distinct visual movement. Printed as custom made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an elegant, grounded focal point for classic and eclectic interiors alike.

In the room

We see this pattern working exceptionally well in a living room, library, or dedicated reading room where its rhythmic vertical lines can draw the eye upwards. Because the alternating stripes create an orderly vertical framework, the design sits comfortably on wider, uninterrupted walls where the full cadence of the botanical panels can repeat freely. In a living space with generous ceiling height, the continuous vertical bands lend a sense of architectural structure to the room without feeling heavy or rigid. For a cosy study or library, hanging the wallpaper behind low bookshelves or flanking a fireplace helps frame the architectural features while introducing warm, decorative detail to the background.

Styling it

To balance the ornamental rhythm and rich teal background of the motif, we suggest pairing it with furniture that has clean, classic silhouettes and warm undertones.

• Warm wood furniture in walnut or dark stained tones anchors the earthy red and green botanical elements in the wallpaper.
• Upholstery in soft neutrals, muted olive, or rich terracotta textiles connects directly to the printed motifs without competing with the vertical stripes.
• Simple, unadorned architectural trim and matte brass hardware allow the intricate linework within each panel to stand out as the primary visual focus.

Colour combinations

The design is built upon a deep teal blue base, complemented by earthy red branches, fern greens, and soft cream panels. When choosing paint for adjacent walls, woodwork, or built-in joinery, we suggest looking to the softer cream tones within the framed panels to create an open, cohesive transition. If you want a more intimate, enveloping atmosphere, matching surrounding woodwork or bookcases to a deep teal creates a sophisticated, continuous look that allows the red and green accents to quietly glow.
