The Chinoiserie Collection

Chinoiserie wallpaper is inspired by hand-painted, 17th-century European panels and historic Chinese decorative art. These wallpapers typically feature ornate designs inspired by nature, with elevated depictions of birds, blossoms, pagondas, willows, climbing vines, and florals. This designer chinoiserie wallpaper collection offers a blend of classic patterns and scenic wall murals, available in traditional and peel and stick varieties.

Chinoiserie Wallpaper Styles

With a range of elegant patterns and gorgeous colorways, there are many different chinoiserie wallpaper styles to choose from.

Blue Chinoiserie Wallpaper

Traditional blue-and-white porcelain heritage chinoiserie wallpaper leans into ancient Chinese inspiration, while blue wallpaper variations like vibrant cobalt, deep navy, and powder blue provide a regal atmosphere.

Pink Chinoiserie Wallpaper

For a soft and romantic look, wallpapers with cherry blossom and floral motifs in blush and rose tones create a dreamy effect. 

Green Chinoiserie Wallpaper

From deep emerald, to dusty olive, to airy sage, green chinoiserie wallpaper offers a nature-inspired look that feels timeless and natural. With climbing vines and lush botanicals taking center stage, these designs create an elevated and calming retreat.

Modern Chinoiserie Wallpaper

Clean lines and simplified motifs bring a contemporary edge to chinoiserie wallpaper, especially in modern color palettes — think muted neutrals, monochrome tones, and vivid contrast.

Vintage Chinoiserie Wallpaper

For those looking to embrace the old-world charm of chinoiserie wallpaper, antique designs featuring faded colorways and hand-painted motifs perfectly capture the charm of a vintage-inspired space.

Gold Chinoiserie Wallpaper

Gold chinoiserie wallpapers add instant glamor to interiors. Often featuring gilded patterns against dark backdrops, this approach adds a layer of bold luxury to the chinoiserie style.

Floral Chinoiserie Wallpaper

Floral wallpaper featuring sweeping peonies, cherry blossoms, and climbing botanicals are central to chinoiserie, providing a romantic element that’s soft and timeless.

Bird Chinoiserie Wallpaper

Another traditional chinoiserie theme, bird designs featuring songbirds, cranes, and herons add intrinsic charm and movement to any space.

Peel and Stick Chinoiserie Wallpaper

Want the historic look of chinoiserie wallpaper without sacrificing modern convenience? Peel and stick wallpaper is a removable, no-paste option that’s perfect for renters and DIYers. Mitchell Black offers peel and stick wallpaper across the chinoiserie collection.

Where To Use Chinoiserie Wallpaper

Chinoiserie wallpaper is an elegant design choice in any space. It’s all about choosing patterns and colorways that express your personal style and align with your vision

These wallpapers shine in formal dining rooms, especially scenic murals and large-scale patterns that add grand ambiance. Similarly, traditional patterns work beautifully in living rooms, providing elevated style as a feature wall or full-room backdrop.

In bedrooms, consider delicate floral patterns with delicate blush, sky blue, and sage tones to infuse the space with calming energy. You can also transform a bathroom or powder room with vintage chinoiserie designs — just be sure to choose moisture-resistant materials in traditional or peel and stick.

You can also add character and depth to transitional spaces like entryways and hallways, especially when you opt for dark and bold colorways with dimensional texture.
