Description
Dearle Artichoke Dusty Blue & Ivory Wallpaper brings the graceful symmetry of the Arts and Crafts movement into a soft, livable color palette. Oversized artichoke flowers, curling vines, pointed leaves and stylized blossoms form an intricate mirrored pattern in dusty blue with subtle green undertones. Warm ivory, pale beige and touches of soft yellow keep the detailed botanical design light and inviting.
Originally designed by John Henry Dearle for Morris & Co. in 1898, Artichoke is often associated with William Morris because of Dearle’s important work within the company. Its layered foliage and formal garden structure make it a natural choice for Arts and Crafts, heritage, cottage, grandmillennial and vintage-inspired interiors.
Use this dusty blue botanical wallpaper in a powder room above white paneling, behind an antique bed, throughout a dining room, in an entryway or across a decorative ceiling. Pair it with walnut or oak furniture, ivory linen, marble, woven textures and aged brass for a room that feels collected, calm and enduring.
Choose Your Pattern Scale
- 26-inch repeat: Creates a balanced medium-scale pattern that brings the artichokes, flowers and curling vines into closer view. This scale works beautifully in bathrooms, entryways, bedrooms and rooms with paneling.
- 52-inch repeat: Gives the large botanical forms more room and creates a dramatic statement for dining rooms, living rooms, bedrooms, feature walls and ceilings.
Both scales feature the same artwork and colors. Pattern scale describes the size of the repeating design; it does not change the 26-inch panel width.
Crafted Differently
Made to order in the USA, Dearle Artichoke is available in multiple wallpaper materials and panel heights. Order a sample to review the printed dusty blue, ivory, beige and yellow tones, along with the texture and finish of your preferred material, in your own lighting before purchasing full-size panels.
Panel Sizes & Ordering
Panels are 26 inches wide, with a supplied 0.4-inch installation overlap. Measure your full surface, choose coverage that accommodates its dimensions, and allow 1–2 extra inches in height for trimming. Retain the supplied overlap unless an alternative seam method has been confirmed for your selected material.

Historic Botanical Style in Dusty Blue
The Dusty Blue & Ivory colorway gives this elaborate heritage pattern a lighter, quieter character. The cool blue-green foliage feels fresh against warm ivory, while beige and soft yellow details add warmth without making the design feel busy. White paneling creates a crisp traditional contrast, while natural wood and brass bring out its historic Arts and Crafts personality.
