Upton - Flight - Smokes

Delicate, detailed, and full of quiet character, the Upton Collection draws inspiration from the gentle signs of seasonal change - crab apple blossom, bees in flight, and the soft, sculptural forms of paperwhites. Each design in the collection began as a hand-drawn study, celebrating the understated beauty of British gardens and hedgerows. There’s a softness to Upton’s palette and composition, with prints that feel airy, graceful, and grounded in nature. Whether it’s the charm of drifting blossom, the quiet hum of bees, or the simplicity of a single stem, Upton offers a considered take on natural motifs - ideal for spaces that call for a light, elegant touch. Airy. Botanical. Effortlessly timeless

Flight in Smokes captures a stillness in motion — a gentle scattering of bees, butterflies, dragonflies, and beetles as if paused mid-flight. Each insect is delicately illustrated, offering subtle character without overwhelming the space. The Smokes ground, a chalky blue-grey, provides a cool, misty backdrop that enhances the warmth of the natural tones in the insect forms.

Part of the Upton Collection by The House of Abigail, Flight in Smokes brings quiet detail to bedrooms, libraries, and transitional spaces — where softness and subtle storytelling create a sense of calm wonder.
