Wallpaper - Mothers Treasures II Dark

Our Mothers Treasures II Dark wallpaper brings together painterly botanical art and nostalgic collage elements against a deep, dark backdrop. Created by Lisa Audit, the design features a prominent tulip rendered in creamy white and warm red-orange stripes, accompanied by soft pink and pale green hydrangeas, delicate fern foliage, and a vintage postcard label with an illustrated dragonfly. Faded antique typography and subtle ephemera emerge softly from the black ground, lending the composition a layered, heritage feel. Made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our wallpaper creates an artistic focal point with timeless charm.

In the room

The dramatic contrast between the botanical motifs and the dark background gives our wall murals a strong visual presence. We see this working particularly well in a dining room, library, or study where the rich atmosphere and vintage details can envelop the space. Because the large tulip and hydrangeas form a distinct focal cluster, giving this wallpaper an uninterrupted wall allows the full composition and fine calligraphic background details to be appreciated without disruption. In a bedroom, it makes a striking statement behind a headboard, while in an entryway or powder room, the dark tones create an intimate, characterful welcome.

Styling it

To complement the Victorian botanical aesthetic, we suggest pairing our mural wallpapers with furnishings that have classic proportions and warm materiality. Darker woods such as walnut or antique mahogany harmonize naturally with the deep backdrop, while brass or aged bronze accents pick up the warm undertones of the botanical illustrations. Keep upholstery and surrounding textiles relatively quiet in texture and pattern so the detailed floral artwork remains the primary focus of the room.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on a deep black ground, offset by creamy whites, terracotta-red striping in the tulip, soft blush pinks, and muted mossy greens. When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or major furniture pieces, drawing out the warm cream or antique white from the tulip petals creates an elegant contrast. Alternatively, pairing the mural with muted olive greens or soft vintage pinks echoes the foliage and hydrangeas for a cohesive, heritage-inspired scheme.
