About this fabric

The pattern is made up of medium-scale cream and ivory leaves, each defined by a fine branching vein, set against a cool blue-grey background. A noticeable horizontal and vertical weave texture runs through the swatch, adding depth to the subdued colour contrast. This is catalogued as a Fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied information. The cool ground and softened leaf shapes give the design a calm, informal feel while retaining enough definition to read clearly across the cloth.

How to use it

Use this blue-grey and ivory colourway to bring a cool, leafy note to a relaxed sitting room, bedroom chair or full-length curtain. It works especially well alongside chalky whites, pale woods and softly aged grey-blue accents.

A softly weathered blue-grey ground with chalky ivory leaves, suited to relaxed upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Ferndown colour 8 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.
