Selva Midnight/Gold

Exotica 2 Fabric FabricCCF0685-04

Selva Midnight/Gold combines a dense midnight-blue ground with closely packed sweeping leaf forms. Fine gold accents thread through the darker blue texture, adding a subtle metallic glint without lightening the overall depth.

About this fabric

At 574gsm, this substantial fabric has a richly textured appearance suited to upholstery. The dark blue ground reads cool and saturated, while the slender gold foliage catches the light between layered blue lines. Its pattern has a 36cm vertical repeat and a 34.5cm horizontal repeat, creating a continuous, closely scaled botanical surface. The fabric has a 138cm useable width and a standard length of 30m.

How to use it

Use Selva Midnight/Gold on a statement armchair, headboard or sofa where its cool midnight tone can provide visual depth. Repeat the gold detailing sparingly through warm metal lighting or accessories so the foliage remains the focal point.

Use the deep blue ground and restrained gold foliage to bring jewel-toned depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Selva Midnight/Gold 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.
