Wallpaper - Golden Moth

Created by artist Kristy Rice, our Golden Moth wallpaper brings an expressive, painted illustration to the wall. The design showcases an expansive moth with wings layered in warm sunflower yellow, earthy brown, coral pink, and orange tones, defined by loose ink line work in deep blue. Delicate golden-hued paint splatters surround the central figure against a clean, off-white background, capturing the spontaneous energy of an artist's sketchbook. Like all our mural wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well as an artistic focal point in a home study, creative art studio, or teenage room. Because the moth forms a single, commanding central motif, it naturally suits a primary feature wall with clear visibility, such as behind a writing desk, a low bed frame, or an open reading nook. Giving the wallpaper an uninterrupted wall allows the wingspan and dynamic paint splatters to spread out comfortably without feeling crowded by tall storage units.

Styling it

To balance the energetic illustration style, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean in form so the wall mural remains the focus of the space.

Mid-tone natural wood, simple painted desks, and matte ceramic accessories sit comfortably alongside the organic subject matter. For textiles, choosing solid fabrics rather than competing patterns will give the detailed ink outlines room to breathe, while occasional warm brass or metallic accents can subtly echo the golden flecks in the artwork.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper combines a rich palette of sunflower yellow, ochre, soft pink, and warm brown with deep ink-blue contours.

For adjoining walls and woodwork, a soft off-white or light parchment shade creates a seamless continuation of the background. If you prefer more depth, pulling the darker blue from the outlines onto painted trim or a shelving unit provides a striking frame. Muted terracotta, warm mustard, or clay tones in cushions and throws also harmonize naturally with the moth's layered wings.
