About this fabric

The mustard-ochre ground has a rich, earthy depth, while the fine linear surface texture remains visible across the swatch. Flying mallards bring blue-grey wings, teal-green heads and pale bodies into the design, creating movement across the warm background. The clustered foliage is built from overlapping olive and brown rings, with slender branching trunks and horizontal grassy marks adding further detail. No composition, width or performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this warm ochre colourway to bring an illustrated country character to a reading chair, blind or pair of curtains. Balance the mustard ground with olive, tobacco brown, weathered blue-grey and soft cream furnishings.

A characterful ochre ground with wildlife and botanical detail for warm, layered interiors.

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.
