Mayfly Cloud presents an airy, cool-toned interpretation of an ornate vertical pattern. Its cloud-grey ground and soft ivory detailing give the design a gently faded, almost chalk-drawn appearance.

About this fabric

Identified as a cotton print fabric, Mayfly Cloud shows repeated vertical bands of intricate ornamental motifs rather than a plain surface. The pale grey ground keeps the pattern restrained, while ivory lines and medallion-like details create definition without strong contrast. Fine printed detail and the relatively light visual weight make it suitable for curtains as well as lighter upholstery applications. The overall effect is smart but softened, with a quiet, timeworn quality.

How to use it

Use this cool cloud-grey colourway for relaxed curtains, occasional chairs or a window seat, balancing its ivory pattern with natural linen, chalky paint and pale timber.

Pair the cool cloud-grey ground with warm ivory, pale timber and understated antique furniture.

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.
