Wallpaper - Japanese Plum Tree

Our Japanese Plum Tree wallpaper brings the quiet elegance of 18th-century Japanese ink painting into the modern home. The composition features the expressive work of Hasegawa Tōtetsu, centring on a gnarled plum tree whose delicate branches reach across a warm, golden backdrop. Dainty white blossoms dot the twisting boughs, balanced by a dark moon floating in the upper sky and grounded by green leaves and red berries along the base. Printed as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers a calm, artistic atmosphere with historic depth.

In the room

We especially like this wallpaper on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full horizontal span of the branches and the open golden background have space to breathe. In a living room, placing this mural wallpaper behind a low-profile sofa allows the dark moon and upper blossoming branches to remain visible, creating a natural focal point without feeling crowded.

The design also works wonderfully in a dedicated meditation room or quiet study. Because the ink linework and earthy tones have a serene, measured rhythm, the wall murals do not overwhelm enclosed areas. If your room receives generous natural daylight, the warm sunshine yellow base takes on a gentle radiance, while softer artificial lighting in the evening highlights the contrast of the dark ink details and small white florals.

Styling it

To complement the historic Asian zen character of our Japanese Plum Tree design, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined furniture that keeps the visual weight close to the floor. Low timber pieces, such as a simple credenza or low-slung lounge seating in dark-stained or natural warm woods, ground the scene while honouring the traditional aesthetic.

Keep surrounding decorative elements restrained so the intricate branch structure remains the primary visual interest. Dark bronze or blackened iron accents in lighting fixtures or table frames will echo the ink tones of the trunk and moon, while unadorned upholstery in off-white, oat, or unbleached canvas keeps the overall setting feeling grounded and cohesive.

Colour combinations

The core palette of our wallpaper pairs a rich, sunshine yellow and warm golden ground with deep ink charcoals, earthy bark browns, crisp white floral accents, and touches of berry red and leaf green.

When choosing paint colours for adjoining walls and woodwork, we recommend pulling from the softer, neutral tones in the design. A warm off-white, muted linen, or soft sand on the trim and adjacent walls lets the golden yellow of the mural stand out without creating an abrupt contrast. For a richer, more moody scheme, a deep charcoal or warm espresso brown on surrounding door frames or cabinetry beautifully references the dark ink of the moon and tree trunk.
