About this fabric

The pattern is closely packed with botanical sprays, curling stems, paisley shapes and small scattered blossoms rather than a single dominant motif. Its Prussian blue background reads deep and slightly muted, allowing the pale blue and cream elements to catch the eye while sage-green foliage adds a quieter natural note. Fine dotted and outlined details create visible texture across the design, while occasional warm tan-gold touches prevent the colourway from feeling flat or overly cold. As a versatile patterned fabric, it can work across both upholstery and drapery applications.

How to use it

Pair this colourway with warm ivory, chalky stone and muted sage for a balanced scheme that softens the depth of the blue. On a chair, headboard or curtain, repeat the pale blue and cream accents rather than introducing a brighter contrasting colour.

Use the cool blue ground to bring depth to relaxed upholstery or softly tailored curtains, with cream and sage accents echoed around the room.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Kandesh Prussian without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

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.
