Blue Chinoiserie Wallpaper for Bedrooms
Chinoiserie began in 18th-century Europe as an imaginative response to imported painted silks and porcelain. Branches, blossom and birds give walls a hand-painted, collected-over-time feel.
Bedrooms are the perfect place to experiment because they are private and lived in mostly at night. A papered wall behind the bed acts like an oversized headboard.
Blue is calm, trustworthy and endlessly versatile, from airy duck egg to inky indigo.
Our edit of 22 original designs includes blossom branch, cherry bough, garden birds, garden of birds, pavilion garden, peony bough and more. Highlights from the edit include Montacute Garden of Birds, Lacock Peony Bough, Hanbury Willow Court.

Styling tips
- Lacquer-red, celadon and gold accents suit chinoiserie, as do bamboo-effect furniture and blue-and-white ceramics.
- Pale blues open up north-facing rooms when paired with warm whites; deep blues cocoon.
- Calming palettes and organic patterns help bedrooms feel restful.
- Run it all the way round a dining room or bedroom to create the immersive 'painted room' effect it was invented for.
How much will I need?
A typical bedroom wall of about 3.6 m wide × 2.4 m high needs 7 drops. With a 64 cm pattern repeat you get 3 drops per 10 m roll, so you would order 3 rolls – from £132.60 on Standard paper to £217.62 on Luxe. Use the calculator on any product page for your exact walls.
Make it your own
Every design in this edit can be recoloured, rescaled and previewed on a photo of your own wall in Design Your Own, then printed made-to-measure.
