Wallpaper - Duck Delight I

Our Duck Delight I wallpaper features a pair of ducks standing side by side, illustrated in a delicate black and white ink sketch style. Designed by Anne Tavoletti, the composition pairs a rounded foreground duck with a leaner companion behind, complemented by fine line details that suggest feather texture and small tufts of grass at their feet. Set against a warm, neutral cream and white backdrop, this hand-drawn motif brings a quiet, storybook charm to your walls. Like all our wall murals, 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 character without visual noise. In a nursery, toddler room or playroom, the gentle animal motif feels playful and welcoming while keeping the overall palette soft and restful. The open, light background also makes it an appealing choice for a country kitchen, a dining area or a relaxed study. Because the sketch relies on delicate black ink lines against a pale background, it sits comfortably on a feature wall behind a low cot or sofa, or across a wider unbroken wall where the charming pair can take centre stage.

Styling it

The 19th-century sketch character makes this one of our favourite wallpapers to style with heritage and English country influences. We suggest pairing it with warm, mid-toned woods or painted furniture in muted earth tones to keep the mood relaxed and homey. Textured natural fabrics such as simple woven curtains or upholstery help ground the delicate line art without competing with the illustration. Keep decorative accents understated, letting the vintage illustrative style of the ducks act as the main focal point in the room.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres on soft black ink work against a base of cream and gentle off-white. To build a cohesive room around it, we recommend surrounding wall colours in warm neutrals, chalky off-whites or soft buttermilk tones that echo the pale background. If you prefer subtle contrast, muted heritage shades like soft sage, warm stone, or olive drab on surrounding woodwork and skirting boards frame the illustrative motif beautifully.
