TULIPA Wallpaper - Onyx

wallpaper Wallpaper1-WA-TUL-DI-ONX-XXX-004

TULIPA Wallpaper – Onyx creates a dense botanical scene against a near-black ground, with large flowers, trailing stems and scattered foliage woven visually across the surface. Muted coral, blush, sage, cream, ochre and blue accents bring depth without lifting the overall dark, atmospheric tone.

About this fabric

Catalogued as wallpaper, TULIPA in Onyx is defined by its near-black background and richly detailed floral arrangement. Large tulip-like blooms and open flowers sit among ferny leaves, curling stems and smaller sprigs, creating a varied pattern scale across the image. The colour palette is softened rather than bright, combining dusty pinks, faded reds, sage and forest greens with cream, ochre and restrained blue-purple touches. Dark charcoal foliage recedes into the ground, allowing the pale and warm flowers to appear as delicate points of contrast.

How to use it

The inky Onyx ground suits a dramatic study, dining room or bedroom feature wall, particularly alongside dark timber and aged brass. Echo the muted blush, sage and cream flowers in upholstery or accessories to keep the scheme connected without competing with the dense botanical pattern.

Use the deep Onyx ground to give a room a dramatic, layered backdrop for antique wood, brass and softly coloured upholstery.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
