About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester, Alaska Mauve is specified for severe contract upholstery and drapes, and it carries a 45,000 severe contract rub test for demanding interiors. The fabric has a clean plain style and a visibly even surface, with the colour sitting between pink and lilac rather than leaning strongly warm or cool. At 146cm wide and 300gsm, it has enough body to work confidently across seating and curtains while still feeling smooth and controlled in appearance. The mauve shade is soft rather than bright, giving it an understated, elegant mood that will sit comfortably in both residential and contract schemes.

How to use it

Use this muted mauve to soften larger upholstered pieces, or hang it as drapes where the colour can catch light and appear slightly dustier and more lilac. It pairs well with pale oak, chalky neutrals and deeper plum accents.

A versatile mauve that brings a soft, tailored calm to both seating and full-length curtains.

Pairs well with

Alaska Mauve is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
