About this fabric

Kandesh Saffron is shown here as a dense, medium-scale ornamental pattern rather than an open ground. The colourway layers a dusty rose base with saffron ochre, sage green, parchment cream and charcoal accents, giving the design a warm, softly weathered depth. Paisley-like curls, stylised flowers, leaves and small dotted details create a busy but balanced surface, while the image shows a lightly textured textile face. It is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use the warm dusty-rose ground to soften a sitting room, pairing it with aged timber, antique brass and muted sage upholstery or painted furniture. The saffron and cream details can be picked out in cushions and small decorative accents.

Pair its dusty rose ground with warm woods and muted sage accents.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Kandesh Saffron 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.
