Wallpaper - Forest Animals Telft Tiles, Sepia

Our Forest Animals Delft Tiles wallpaper brings together four illustrated ceramic-style panels, each framing a different woodland creature: two rabbits nestled together, a seated fox, a swallow in flight, and two boxing hares. Rendered in warm sepia and soft rosy undertones against a creamy off-white backdrop, the design captures the visual character of aged Delft pottery with fine crackle-glaze effects and ornate scroll borders. What we particularly appreciate about this design is how its historic tile composition adds architectural structure while keeping a gentle, storybook charm. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, it creates a distinctive feature wall that feels both timeless and welcoming.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in rooms that benefit from character and narrative detail. In a kitchen, dining room, or hallway, the repeating tile grid introduces an authentic heritage feel without the physical weight of ceramic tiling. Because the animal vignettes are finely detailed, we would give the design a wall where people naturally pause, such as behind a breakfast table, along an entryway, or above painted panelling in a mudroom.

The playful yet quiet subject matter also makes it a charming backdrop for a nursery, toddler room, or playroom. The gentle sepia tones keep the room calm, while the individual animals give young eyes something delightful to discover. In larger living rooms or guest bedrooms, running the mural wallpapers across a main wall adds instant depth and historic warmth without overwhelming surrounding furnishings.

Styling it

The antique Dutch-tile aesthetic pairs naturally with classic, cottage, French country, and rustic interiors. We would lean into the warmth of the sepia palette with natural, tactile materials:

• Pair with warm wood tones, such as aged pine, honey oak, or antique walnut, to echo the traditional craft aesthetic of the tiles.
• Keep surrounding upholstery and larger textiles in simple, unbleached linens or soft wools so the intricate tile borders remain the focal point.
• Complement the design with vintage-inspired brass or muted iron hardware on cabinetry and lighting to reinforce the heritage character.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper centres on warm sepia brown, delicate dusty rose accents, and a soft, creamy neutral base.

When choosing paint colours for adjacent walls, skirting, or woodwork, we recommend pulling directly from the wallpaper's background with warm off-whites, chalky creams, or soft putty shades. If you prefer a richer contrast, muted earthy tones like vintage rose, warm fawn, or a dusty mushroom work beautifully alongside the sepia line work. For cabinetry or architectural trim, deep charcoal or warm antique black can create a handsome, defined frame around the wall murals.
