About this fabric

The pattern is densely filled with curling stems, serrated leaves, stylised flowers, seed heads and ornamental floral forms, giving the surface an archival, illustrated character. Its dark ground makes the sage and olive greens appear deep and earthy, while cream, stone and dusty blue details provide small flashes of contrast. The closely packed motif reads as intricate rather than open, with plenty of visual depth across the repeat. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this colourway to anchor a study, snug or richly layered bedroom, pairing its charcoal base with warm timber, aged brass and restrained cream upholstery. Sage and muted blue accents can be echoed in cushions or painted joinery without competing with the dense botanical repeat.

Use the dark charcoal ground and layered sage, olive, cream and muted blue motifs to bring depth to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

Paint that goes with it

Two ways to take the room. Both colours are from houses we hold, so a pot can come off the same order as the cloth. Screens shift colour, so treat these as a direction and bring the cloth to the shelf before you buy the paint.
