Wallpaper - Vintage Birds

Our Vintage Birds wallpaper, created by Andrea Haase, combines botanical illustration with the look of antique ephemera. An orange and black bird perches among leafy branches bearing bright orange berries, a hanging fig, and small red flowers with yellow centers. The muted green backdrop carries layered script and vintage postal markings, giving the motif an artistic, archival character. We make our wallpapers made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, making them straightforward to hang in any room.

In the room

We see this design working naturally in a living room, study, or dedicated home library where you want an intimate, layered feel. Because the motif balances delicate script with richer botanical illustration, it handles both wide, open walls and smaller wall segments well. On a feature wall behind low seating or a writing desk, the bird and fruit details remain clearly visible without overwhelming the space. In a room with softer afternoon light, the muted green base recedes gently, allowing the burnt orange and earthy tones of the foliage to warm the surrounding interior.

Styling it

The historic, heritage-inspired feel of this design pairs easily with traditional and eclectic decor. We like using deeper or warm-toned woods, such as walnut or antique mahogany, to echo the classic botanical theme and anchor the room.

To keep the focal point on the wallpaper, we would balance the wall with relatively unpatterned upholstered seating in quiet neutrals or olive tones. Polished or aged brass accents on lighting and hardware complement the warm orange notes in the bird and berries without competing with the fine lines of the background script.

Color combinations

The wallpaper brings together a soft, muted green ground with burnt orange, warm black, berry tones, and earthy leafy greens.

To create a cohesive scheme around it, we suggest pulling from the backdrop with faded sage or soft olive paint on adjacent walls and woodwork. If you want a warmer contrast, rich rust, ochre, or deep charcoal accents in throws and upholstery pick up the plumage and botanical highlights, adding depth while keeping the overall palette grounded.
