Wallpaper - Floral Damask & Bows, Vermilion

Our Floral Damask & Bows wallpaper, created by RNM Arts, brings together the graceful rhythm of classic Arts and Crafts styling with rich, dramatic colour. Set against a deep, near-black backdrop, the design features striking vermilion floral blooms framed by arching green acanthus foliage and curving pink ribbons. Fine vertical pinstripes run through the centre of the symmetry, anchoring the swirling botanical forms. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this design offers an elegant, expressive statement that works beautifully across both traditional and contemporary interiors.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in spaces where you want to introduce depth, character and a sense of heritage. In a formal dining room or a welcoming living room, the vertical symmetry creates a balanced, stately presence across a main feature wall behind a dining table or sofa. Because the repeat has a deliberate vertical flow, it helps draw the eye upwards in rooms with higher ceilings, while adding warmth and intimacy to more compact settings like a study, hallway, or guest bedroom. For an enveloping, cocooning atmosphere, wrapping multiple walls in a bedroom or reading nook lets the curving foliage and soft pink ribbons flow seamlessly around the space.

Styling it

To let the intricate foliage and vermilion blossoms stand out, we suggest pairing this mural with furniture in warm, mid-toned woods or classic painted finishes in dark charcoal or muted olive. Upholstered pieces in tactile fabrics such as matte velvet, woven wool, or brushed cotton echo the classic textile feel of the damask motif without competing for visual attention. Brass or aged bronze hardware on cabinetry, mirrors, and lighting will pick up the warm undertones of the ribbons and vermilion petals, lending a cohesive, grounded look to the entire room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself combines a deep charcoal-black ground with vivid vermilion red, soft coral-pink ribbons, and layered sage and forest greens. When choosing surrounding wall colours, trims, or cabinetry, we like pulling from these established tones. A soft, warm off-white or light plaster tone on adjacent walls keeps the room feeling open and balances the depth of the dark background. If you prefer a richer, more immersive palette, matching your woodwork or adjoining walls to a muted sage green, deep forest green, or moody charcoal creates a sophisticated, unbroken scheme.
