About this fabric

This colourway sets finely drawn botanical and bird motifs against a pale, warm cream ground. Muted antique-gold outlines give the central long-tailed bird, clustered blossoms and curling leaves a softly aged, low-contrast character rather than a bright metallic effect. The close view shows a lightly mottled surface, while the repeated linework adds depth as the light moves across the swatch. No performance features are noted for the supplied fabric, so its character here rests on the visible pattern, tonal softness and surface detail.

How to use it

Use Sophia Colour 8 where its gentle cream-and-antique-gold contrast can soften a room while still supplying an ornate focal point—on a statement chair, curtain or coordinated accent scheme.

Pair the warm cream ground and muted antique-gold pattern with natural linens, aged timber and softly coloured upholstery.

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.
