Wallpaper - Pretty Bird I

Our Pretty Bird I wallpaper features a vibrant toucan perched on a weathered branch, illustrated with rich orange, warm yellow and deep green plumage. Designed by Deborah Revell, the composition captures an antique correspondence look, combining fine botanical sketches, delicate cursive script and a vintage postage stamp over an aged paper ground with gentle foxing and fold marks. As with all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We love how this design brings an authentic collector feel into a space. The large central toucan works exceptionally well on a main feature wall in a living room, study or home library, where the intricate details of the vintage letter background can be appreciated up close. Because the background consists of soft, warm paper tones with faint pencil flora and handwriting, the design makes a strong focal statement without overwhelming the entire space. We recommend placing it along a wall where lower furniture, such as a writing desk, low credenza or reading armchair, leaves the central bird and stamp motif clearly visible.

Styling it

The nostalgic character of this mural wallpaper pairs beautifully with heritage, eclectic and classic English country interiors. We would balance the vintage illustrative style with warm, natural timber furniture such as aged oak or rich walnut. Antique brass lighting fixtures, vintage books and framed botanical drawings echo the curatorial theme of the artwork, while keeping larger upholstery in understated neutral linens allows the bold colours of the toucan to remain the visual centrepiece of the room.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on rich, warm tones: glowing dark orange and yellow across the bird's chest, balanced by deep forest green wings, a touch of red in the stamp and tail feathers, and a soft, warm parchment base. To complement the wallpaper, we suggest pairing it with adjacent walls painted in warm off-white, antique cream or soft linen. For a moodier, more enveloping atmosphere in a study or library, deep olive green or rich chocolate brown on surrounding woodwork and skirting picks up the deeper shades of the plumage and branch.
