Nala Willow

Amara FabricCCF0164-04

Nala Willow brings a warm ivory ground to the Amara collection, punctuated by small, softly irregular willow-toned marks. Its visible woven texture gives the pale colourway gentle depth rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

The 421 gsm construction has a substantial, tactile presence suited to upholstery, while the fine woven ground keeps the overall look composed. Across the ivory surface, small taupe-willow motifs appear as horizontal bow-like marks, creating a delicate broken rhythm rather than a bold geometric pattern. The design has a 15.8 cm vertical repeat and a 22.5 cm horizontal repeat, allowing the motif to remain finely scaled across a cover. With a 135 cm usable width and 40 m standard length, Nala Willow is a practical choice for coordinated upholstery projects.

How to use it

Use Nala Willow on a tailored armchair, dining chair or compact sofa where its warm ivory base can brighten the room without feeling stark. Pair the willow-toned detail with natural wood, warm stone and soft taupe accents for a quietly layered scheme.

A warm ivory woven ground with delicate willow-toned marks for quietly tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Nala Willow 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.
