Question 1

Why does the same blue look different on grasscloth than it does on vinyl?

Accepted Answer

Because grasscloth is made from natural plant fibers such as sisal, jute, arrowroot, and seagrass, each harvest may absorb dyes differently, creating color variations even within the same production run. These differences may range from subtle to more pronounced from one strip to the next, a natural characteristic known in the industry as “shading” or “paneling.”

Question 2

What is the best blue wallpaper for a bedroom?

Accepted Answer

Choose the blue by how much daylight the room gets and how close people will sit to the wall. Deep indigo and navy grounds settle a room with strong light and read almost black at night. Softer blues hold their color under lamplight. Texture matters at close range, so a grasscloth or paperweave blue suits a headboard wall, while a printed trellis or toile reads better from across the room.

Question 3

What kinds of blue wallcoverings does Thibaut make?

Accepted Answer

Thibaut offers blue wallcoverings across a wide range of styles, including chinoiserie, toile, damask, trellis, stripe, geometric, and grasscloth designs from both Thibaut and Anna French. A few patterns to explore first include Lincoln Toile, Turnberry Trellis, Norfolk Stripe, and Shang Extra Fine Sisal, along with Anna French favorites such as Peacock Toile and Holly Trellis. To refine your search, combine the blue color filter with a pattern or material filter.

Question 4

How do I match a blue wallcovering to a blue fabric or trim?

Accepted Answer

Match them with physical memos of both, compared in the room they are going into. Warm artificial light carries little blue energy, so a blue can read noticeably different at night than it does in daylight, and a wallcovering and a fabric are built on different bases with different finishes. A screen image will not settle it. Memo samples are complimentary for trade customers and yours to keep.
