Wallpaper - Peacock Arbor I

Created by Sue Schlabach, our Peacock Arbor I wallpaper centres on a majestic peacock perched among delicate flowering branches. The artwork pairs fine botanical line drawings of creamy white blossoms with the vivid emerald, teal, and earthy green tones of the bird's plumage, all set against a soft, aged cream backdrop detailed with faint French script and subtle damask patterning. This design brings a refined, historic charm to an interior while remaining light and balanced on the wall. Produced made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it is straightforward to hang and easy to integrate into your space.

In the room

We love seeing this design given room to breathe on a wide, prominent wall where the full profile of the peacock and the trailing branches can unfold without heavy obstruction. In a bedroom, it works naturally behind a headboard, setting a tranquil and dreamy atmosphere while the light cream background keeps the room feeling open. In a living room or home library, the rich jewel tones in the plumage make it a compelling focal point, particularly on a wall that receives soft daylight to bring out the emerald and blue details in the feathers.

Styling it

Because the motif carries such detailed artistic character, we suggest pairing it with furniture that has clean, classic silhouettes rather than overly ornate shapes. Dark wood furniture, such as walnut or deep mahogany, creates a grounded contrast that echoes the heritage feel of the illustration. For upholstery and textiles, simple woven fabrics in neutral linen or muted velvet tones allow the botanical details to take centre stage.

Colour combinations

The palette within our wallpaper blends vibrant peacock blues, emerald greens, and soft olive shades with warm off-white petals and an aged cream ground. To complement these tones on adjacent surfaces, look to soft warm whites or muted stone hues that extend the quiet background of the design. If you want to draw out the deeper notes of the plumage, accents in deep forest green, muted navy, or dark charcoal trim provide a striking and cohesive balance.
