Give your home a seasonal refresh with our edit of dramatic floral homeware inspired by the new collaboration from H&M Home and the British Museum.
If you thought re-vamping your wardrobe for winter was fun, then consider the joy of giving your home a luxuriously cosy makeover for the colder months, something we look forward to every year.
Most of us don’t have the time to re-paint our walls in moody hues for autumn, but a few small touches here and there can make it feel like your surroundings have had a seasonal update.
Right now we’re feeling very inspired by H&M Home’s new collaboration with the British Museum, which sees British artist Mary Delany’s 200-year-old floral designs re-worked onto cushions, vases and ornaments on an inky black background.
The collection is selling out fast (like, really fast) but we’ve curated an edit of dark-hued and floral homeware pieces in homage, and so you can recreate the look for yourself.
Flower-motif vase
There’s lots of pieces from the British Museum x H&M collaboration that we’re lusting after, but this glazed porcelain vase with a floral print motif just about takes the lead.
The drama of a black base with the contrasting purple tulipa sylvestris flower is so stylish.
