Berkeley Natural presents a softly warm taupe-beige ground overlaid with pale ivory botanical sprigs. The closely spaced leaves and flower heads give the surface a gentle, chalky contrast rather than a high-impact pattern.

About this fabric

This 376gsm fabric has a substantial appearance, making it a strong choice for upholstery. The visible design combines small ivory flowers, curling leaves and fine stems in a repeating botanical arrangement across the taupe ground. Its pattern repeat measures 34.2cm vertically by 34cm horizontally, while the 137cm usable width provides practical coverage for furniture projects. Light catches the pale motifs against the muted beige surface, giving the colourway a softly dimensional, tailored look.

How to use it

Use Berkeley Natural on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its warm taupe base can sit comfortably with natural wood, linen and softly aged neutrals. The ivory foliage keeps the upholstery light while adding more detail than a plain neutral.

A softly warm taupe ground with ivory botanical detail, well suited to upholstered seating and occasional furniture.

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.
