Zion Damson

Avalon FabricCCF0409-03

Zion Damson brings a deep plum-burgundy ground to the Avalon collection, crossed by tightly repeated cream and muted pink chevrons. The close-woven surface gives the colour a rich, softly textured depth.

About this fabric

The design is built from compact zigzag bands, with pale broken lines standing out clearly against the dark damson ground. Subtle variation across the woven face keeps the plum tone from appearing flat, while the repeated triangles create a crisp, graphic rhythm. At 519gsm, this is a substantial fabric suited to upholstery rather than a fine, fluid curtain cloth. It has a usable width of 137cm, with a 2.5cm vertical repeat and 3.4cm horizontal repeat for accurate pattern planning.

How to use it

Use Zion Damson on a buttoned chair, bench or statement sofa where its dark berry tone can anchor warm neutrals, aged timber and brushed brass. The small-scale cream chevron adds definition without overpowering compact upholstered pieces.

A substantial damson woven with a compact chevron pattern, well suited to tailored upholstery and accent seating.

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