About this fabric

Fine ivory drawings of leafy stems, flowering plants, small animals and larger ornamental scenes are scattered across the basil-green ground. The green is subdued rather than bright, with a softly varied surface that makes it read as layered and tactile in the image. A subtle vertical texture is visible beneath the motifs, adding quiet depth without overpowering the detailed linework. No composition, width, rub test or performance specification has been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this muted basil colourway to soften a country sitting room, reading nook or bedroom, pairing it with warm ivory, aged timber and natural woven accents. The ivory motifs can also be picked out in cushions or a simple upholstered chair for a more collected look.

The softened basil ground and ivory folk drawings would bring gentle pastoral character 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 Friendly Folk Basil Green Fabric | Kit Kemp Collection 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.
