About this fabric

The golden tan background has a muted, earthy quality rather than a bright yellow cast, while the ivory leaves stand out clearly across the surface. Each stylised leaf has a branching central vein and gently irregular edges, creating a relaxed botanical rhythm. Fine woven crosshatching is visible through the ground and motifs, adding subtle depth and keeping the pattern from appearing flat. The medium-scale repeat works well where a clearly recognisable leaf design is wanted without overwhelming the surrounding scheme.

How to use it

Use this warm ochre and ivory colourway on a reading chair, bench or relaxed pair of curtains, with pale oak, ecru linen and muted clay accents to reinforce its sun-warmed botanical character.

Pair the warm ochre ground and ivory leaves with natural woods, linen and soft neutral upholstery.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ferndown colour 6 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.
