About this fabric

The pattern is formed from repeating fan-like foliage, fine fronds and small spotted or striped details, arranged in a highly symmetrical layout. Against the blue-black ground, the bronze and aged-gold tones appear softly burnished rather than bright, giving the colourway considerable depth. This is a 266gsm fabric with a 137cm usable width and a 40m standard length. Both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats measure 34.3cm, making the regular design straightforward to align across panels or upholstered sections.

How to use it

Use the ink-blue and bronze palette to bring a moody, collected feel to a reading-room chair, ottoman or full-length curtain. Pair it with dark timber, aged brass and warm taupe plains so the intricate pattern remains the focal point.

A richly patterned mid-weight woven for statement upholstery, cushions, curtains or blinds.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Leopardo Antique/Noir 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.
