About this fabric

The visible ground has a subtle woven, linen-like texture in cool grey, giving the colourway a quiet depth rather than a flat background. Large mustard-yellow botanical forms are edged with feathery deep-blue leaves, while smaller pale cream and blue sprigs create an alternating rhythm between the main motifs. The yellow reads warm and gently softened against the cooler grey and blue, with fine darker marks adding definition inside the larger forms. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Set this colourway against chalky whites, weathered timber and navy accents to bring out its cool grey base and deep blue foliage, or use warm ochre accessories to echo the mustard motifs. Its patterned surface would add character to a relaxed armchair, Roman blind or pair of cushions.

Use the cool grey ground to temper the mustard and blue botanical pattern in tailored 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.
