Vintage Tropical Forest and Palm Wallpaper, Engraved Style

Palms and banana leaves stand in front as dark green, almost black silhouettes; behind them a honey-coloured sky and a low sun. The whole surface is worked in fine horizontal engraving lines, which gives the design the feel of a plate lifted from an old botanical folio.

Where it works

The contrast is high, so keep it to one wall; with a dark green or mustard velvet sofa, rattan and brass it builds a confident living room. Along a long dining-room wall it also works as a panoramic scene.
