Wallpaper - Kyoto Grace, Pewter

Our Kyoto Grace, Pewter wallpaper presents an elegant scenic composition created by Irina Chikati, featuring three cranes poised on a soft green mound beneath slender, branching trees. One crane spreads its wings in gentle motion while the others stand in quiet rest, creating a balanced visual rhythm against a calm taupe backdrop with delicate white and green foliage. The ink and watercolour-inspired drawing style gives the illustration an airy, classic chinoiserie character with soft lines and earthy undertones. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, bringing an artistic, nature-inspired focal point to interior walls.

In the room

We see this mural wallpaper working particularly well in spaces where you want a calm, considered presence without heavy visual density. In a bedroom, placing the design behind the bed allows the graceful forms of the cranes and the upward sweep of the trees to frame the sleeping space naturally. In a dining room or living room, we would give it a wider, uninterrupted feature wall so the full landscape and spacing between the birds can be appreciated from across the room. The soft taupe background also makes it an appealing choice for an entryway or dressing room, where the vertical lines of the trees draw the eye upward and bring quiet charm to transitional areas.

Styling it

The refined chinoiserie character of this wallpaper pairs beautifully with interiors that balance classic detailing and contemporary simplicity. We would combine it with warm, natural wood finishes or muted painted furniture that echo the earthy tones of the background, keeping the larger furniture pieces simple so the illustrative detail carries the room. In dining or living areas, subtle antique brass or muted bronze accents on lighting and hardware complement the pewter and taupe palette, while understated textiles in neutral shades ensure the walls remain the central decorative element.

Colour combinations

The palette in our design centres on a warm, earthy taupe background paired with soft green ground tones and delicate white accents in the tree canopy. To build a cohesive room around it, we suggest using warm off-whites, stone, or muted taupe on adjacent walls and woodwork to maintain an airy, seamless backdrop. For deeper contrast, gentle olive or sage greens drawn from the landscape elements work well on upholstered seating, curtains, or cabinetry without overpowering the gentle balance of the scene.
