Wallpaper - Fresh Vessels II

Our Fresh Vessels II wallpaper by Julia Purinton brings together a balanced still life composition of three ceramic vases set across a light surface. A large tan vessel on the left holds fresh green leafy branches, set beside a tall grey vase in the centre and a smaller, rounded white pot on the right with delicate foliage. Painted in an expressive, painterly style with subtle visible brushwork and oil paint textures, the motif sits against a muted, dark grey background that gives the earthy vessels clear definition. Produced to order as custom made wallpaper murals, our wall murals are PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In a living room or dining room, this mural wallpaper works especially well on an uninterrupted feature wall where the complete still life arrangement can be appreciated in full scale. The dark grey backdrop introduces depth without overwhelming the space, while the lighter tabletop plane grounds the composition nicely along the lower portion of the wall. We particularly like placing this design along a dining wall behind a sideboard or dining table, where the horizontal tabletop line in the artwork naturally aligns with room furnishings. In spaces with soft natural daylight, the contrast between the pale earthenware and the deeper backdrop creates a calm, tranquil visual focal point.

Styling it

The organic, painterly quality of this design pairs naturally with organic modern and contemporary interiors. To complement the earthen pottery in the motif, we suggest bringing in warm wood furniture such as oak or walnut dining tables, low credenzas, or open shelving. Simple ceramic tableware and matte pottery echoing the shapes in the artwork help tie the room together without competing with the wall mural. Keep surrounding upholstery and window dressings in quiet, unpatterned woven textiles so the focal focus remains on the artwork.

Colour combinations

The design is built around earthy light brown and tan tones, neutral whites, soft greys, and muted leaf greens set against a charcoal, dark grey ground. When choosing surrounding wall colours and woodwork, warm off-white, light warm grey, or muted taupe will keep the rest of the room bright and balanced. For trim, skirting, or adjoining surfaces where you want a deeper accent, pulling the charcoal grey or a deep espresso brown from the background creates a cohesive, enveloping feel.
