Wallpaper - Cocktail Time

Created by artist Silvia Vassileva, our Cocktail Time wallpaper brings the sociable charm of a 1920s gathering directly to the wall. The painted composition depicts three stylish women enjoying drinks in a warm, characterful interior, surrounded by potted topiaries, an arched window view, soft lamplight, and delicate floral accents. Rich ochre, earthy brown, muted teal, and deep crimson come together with expressive brushwork and an oil-paint aesthetic. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made to measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

This figurative design works wonderfully as a focal point where conversation and entertaining happen naturally. In a dining room or around a dedicated seating area in the living room, we love positioning it on a primary uninterrupted wall so the full narrative scene can unfold without being cut off by tall bookcases or cabinets.

Because the artwork has a rich, painted depth, it also feels exceptionally welcoming in a dressing room or a curated bedroom corner. Giving the wall murals enough breathing room allows the painterly details, from the vintage fashion to the layered interior backdrop, to set a relaxed and refined tone for the entire space.

Styling it

When decorating around a pictorial scene like this, we suggest letting the wallpaper act as the primary artwork in the room. Simple furniture with soft curves and mid-century or vintage heritage silhouettes complements the 1920s spirit without competing for attention.

Warm wood finishes such as walnut, cherry, or vintage teak pair naturally with the ochre and brown undercurrents of the painting. For upholstery and seating, smooth velvet or classic matte weaves in solid colours create a balanced contrast against the expressive, hand-painted look of the wall.

Colour combinations

The palette is rooted in warm, earthy base tones, particularly golden ochre, terracotta red, and rich umber, balanced by cooler notes of seafoam green and muted petrol blue.

To create a cohesive interior, we recommend drawing from the softer background shades for adjacent painted walls. A warm linen tone, soft cream, or an earthy clay colour on the surrounding trim and walls creates a smooth transition. For a bolder, moodier room scheme, you can pull the deep teal or warm crimson from the figures' dresses into velvet cushions, painted joinery, or accent chairs.
