Serengeti Collection FabricBOTSWANA

Botswana Slate pairs a cool grey ground with a bold black leopard motif for a crisp, graphic look. The linen-like surface gives the design a dry, contemporary feel rather than a glossy finish.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% polyester and supplied as drapes only, Botswana Slate has a practical body while still hanging with a neat, composed line. The image shows a pale slate-grey ground with a subtle textured weave that softens the large-scale animal pattern. Black leopards are scattered across the cloth in a conversational layout, with the repeat measuring 31 cm vertically and 35 cm horizontally. At 141 cm wide and 353 grams per linear metre, it is a substantial curtain fabric made in Turkey, suited to statement window treatments rather than upholstery.

How to use it

Use Botswana Slate where you want pattern without warmth: it works well against painted whites, concrete finishes, and dark timber. The cool grey tone keeps the leopard print sharp in modern, tailored rooms.

A cool slate ground keeps the leopard motif crisp and tailored.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Botswana Slate 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.
