About this fabric
This 300gsm fabric has a tactile woven appearance, with lighter and darker threads creating a softly clouded finish across the heather-purple ground. Its cool mauve-plum tone is restrained rather than vivid, while the slightly uneven surface keeps the colour from appearing flat. With a usable width of 144 cm, it offers a versatile mid-weight option for upholstery or drapery. The vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are both 0 cm, confirming the design reads as a plain, non-directional textile.
How to use it
Pair Alvar Heather with warm neutrals, dusky rose or charcoal to balance its cool mauve-purple character. Its quiet tonal variation works particularly well on relaxed seating, cushions and full-length curtains where the surface can catch changing light.
Use this softly mottled heathered purple to bring depth and gentle colour to upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with
Alvar Heather 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.
