About this fabric

This Art of the Loom fabric shows pheasants in flight against a pale blue-grey background, with sweeping cloud scrolls and dotted, lace-like edging throughout the repeat. The birds combine rust-brown, saffron yellow, cream, charcoal and touches of vivid blue, creating a more colourful focal point against the restrained ground. A fine, even woven texture is visible across the surface, giving the pattern a softly tactile rather than glossy appearance. As a versatile fabric rather than wallpaper, this colourway can be considered for both upholstery and drapery applications.

How to use it

Use the cool blue-grey ground to settle a room with pale painted walls, then draw out the rust and saffron bird markings through cushions, piping or painted furniture. The deeper blue accents also work well with charcoal, denim and aged timber.

Pair the cool blue-grey ground with warm timber, muted rust and soft natural neutrals.

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.
