Blue Willow Tulip Duo Art Print

Against plaster, the soft pink tulips read less sweet, more deliberate. The blue willow-style border does most of the heavy lifting it pulls the whole thing together and gives the wall a grown-up, country-house feel.

A quiet room gains a focal point without losing its calm. Pink and blue sit together the way they do in old china cabinets familiar, layered, easy to live with.

Hangs well above a painted chest of drawers, between two bedroom windows, or on a narrow stretch of dining-room wall where blue-and-white ceramics already live.

Goes with rattan headboards, linen lampshades, gingham or ticking-stripe cushions, brass cabinet handles, and warm oak floors. Painted walls in chalky off-white or soft sage flatter the border best.

Skip pairing with cool industrial greys or anything chrome it fights the warmth.
