Navy Chinoiserie Wallpaper

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.

Navy is the new neutral: deep, tailored and easy to pair with brass and timber.

Our edit of 7 original designs includes cherry bough, garden birds, lacquer garden, moon gate, painted orchard, peony bough. Highlights from the edit include Kelmarsh Peony Bough, Perrin Cherry Bough, Oxburgh Lacquer Garden.

Styling tips

  • Lacquer-red, celadon and gold accents suit chinoiserie, as do bamboo-effect furniture and blue-and-white ceramics.
  • Navy suits studies, bedrooms and dining rooms especially well.
  • 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 hallway wall of about 5.0 m wide × 2.5 m high needs 10 drops. With a 91 cm pattern repeat you get 2 drops per 10 m roll, so you would order 5 rolls – from £221.00 on Standard paper to £362.70 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.

Frequently asked questions

What goes with navy chinoiserie wallpaper?

Lacquer-red, celadon and gold accents suit chinoiserie, as do bamboo-effect furniture and blue-and-white ceramics. Navy suits studies, bedrooms and dining rooms especially well.

Are your designs original?

Yes. Every pattern is an original Wallpaper Kingdom artwork created in-house; we do not reproduce other designers' work.

How many rolls of wallpaper do I need?

Measure the width of each wall and the height from skirting to ceiling. Our rolls are 52 cm wide and 10 m long. Use the roll calculator on every product page – it accounts for the pattern repeat and recommends one spare roll.

Which paper should I choose for a bathroom or kitchen?

Choose Premium (scrubbable) or Luxe and make sure the room is well ventilated. Avoid areas of direct water contact such as inside showers.
