Wallpaper - Southwestern Vases

Created by Albena Hristova, our Southwestern Vases wallpaper brings a painterly, contemporary composition of monumental ceramic vessels to life across the wall. Broad, gestural brushstrokes and dripping layers of paint give the tall terracotta, sienna, and raw umber vessels a rich, expressive character against a soft, creamy background. The horizontal arrangement of varied vessel heights creates an organic rhythm that feels artistic and grounded. Our made-to-measure wallpapers are PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle surface structure, making this design a distinctive focal point for modern interiors.

In the room

Because of the bold scale and horizontal lineup of the vessels, we see this wall mural working particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted wall in a dining room or living room. Giving the pattern room to stretch horizontally ensures that each painted vase and textured drip retains its full visual presence without being awkwardly cut off by corners.

In a dining space, placing our mural wallpapers alongside a long dining table echoes the horizontal flow of the artwork and creates an engaging backdrop for entertaining. In a larger living room, setting the design behind a low-profile sofa allows the upper silhouettes and dripped details of the vases to rise naturally above the seating line.

Styling it

The expressive, painterly nature of the motif pairs naturally with organic modern and contemporary interiors that celebrate raw, sculptural forms. We suggest keeping surrounding furniture shapes relatively clean and grounded so the textured brushwork of the wallpaper remains the primary artistic statement in the room.

To complement the artisanal feel of the design, consider styling the space with low-sheen materials such as matte ceramic tableware, coarse woven textiles, or a simple plastered light fixture. When choosing wood accents, warm neutral tones like natural ash or muted white oak echo the earthy undertones of the mural without competing with the deeper terracotta and brown shades.

Color combinations

Our Southwestern Vases design is built on a warm, grounded palette featuring rich sienna, deep brown, burnt terracotta, and subtle touches of ochre and crimson, all set against a warm ivory and cream background.

When choosing colors for adjoining walls, trim, or larger upholstery, we recommend pulling from the lighter background tones with warm off-whites, creamy linen, or soft sand. For a bolder, more enveloping look, you can echo the deeper notes of the wallpaper by introducing deep terracotta accents, rich tobacco leather, or warm earth-toned drapery in surrounding areas.
