About this fabric

The design is filled with scrolling leaves, stylised flowers, paisley-like forms and bird or foliage shapes, creating a small-scale pattern with very little empty space. Its cream background keeps the overall impression light, while saturated reds, deep blues, leafy greens and touches of pink add pronounced colour and depth. The visible surface reads as an even, non-pile textile, making the detailed pattern the main visual feature. With no further performance or construction specification supplied, this fabric is best considered for both upholstery and drapery subject to project requirements.

How to use it

Use it on a statement armchair, occasional upholstery or full-length curtains where the cream ground can brighten the room. Repeat one of the deeper teal, blue or green notes in plain cushions or painted joinery to give the busy pattern a composed setting.

Use the cream ground to balance the pattern, then pick out its red, teal, blue or green accents in surrounding textiles.

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.
