About this fabric

The textured weave gives the fabric a nubby, linen-like appearance, while the folds reveal subtle shifts between the cream ground and the deeper printed or woven-looking motifs. Stylised leaves, curling serpentine shapes, small flowers and a sun-like face create a whimsical woodland composition rather than a restrained geometric pattern. Forest green provides the strongest botanical note, balanced by muted blue, ochre and rust-brown accents that add warmth and visual depth. No performance features are noted in the supplied data for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the warm cream ground as a bridge between natural timber and painted furniture, then pick up the forest green or muted blue in cushions, piping or painted accents. Its relaxed illustrated character is especially suited to a reading chair, occasional seat or informal headboard.

Its cream ground and forest-toned illustrated motifs bring a relaxed, characterful feel to upholstered pieces.

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.
