Wallpaper - Picking Olives

Our Picking Olives wallpaper captures the tactile, abundant feeling of harvest time, bringing a rich photographic still life to the wall. The composition centers on a generous mound of freshly harvested olives in varied natural shades of green, deep purple, and black, accented by scattered olive leaves and a traditional light brown wooden rake. Photographed by Tono Balaguer, this wall mural combines glossy, rounded fruits with the rustic, dry texture of seasoned wood for a grounded, Mediterranean atmosphere. Produced as made-to-measure mural wallpapers on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, our design provides an engaging focal point that feels warm, organic, and rooted in culinary tradition.

In the room

Because of its vivid photographic detail and rich color depth, we see this wallpaper working especially well in a kitchen or around a dedicated dining space. The close-up perspective and dense cluster of olives make it a natural fit for an accent wall behind a dining table or along a breakfast nook wall where its visual richness can be appreciated up close. In an open-plan kitchen and dining area, using our wall murals on an uninterrupted wall helps ground the eating zone, creating a cozy and welcoming backdrop for shared meals.

Styling it

To complement the earthy warmth of the motif, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with simple, unpretentious materials that echo its rustic character. Natural wood furniture in warm tones, such as honey pine or aged oak, sits comfortably alongside the wooden rake in the design. For decorative accents and tableware, look to unglazed terracotta, matte ceramics, or blackened iron hardware, which echo the organic textures without competing with the lively colors of the harvest scene.

Colour combinations

The design itself features an earthy palette of olive green, aubergine purple, glossy black, and warm timber browns. When planning surrounding surfaces, we like pulling out the muted olive green tones for adjacent painted walls or kitchen cabinetry to create a continuous, harmonious feel. Soft warm off-whites, sandy beiges, and deep charcoal trims also frame the wall mural nicely, giving the vibrant purple and green fruits room to stand out without overwhelming the room.
