Dorset Teal

Heritage FabricCCF0254-09

Dorset Teal pairs a cool, softly muted turquoise ground with closely spaced ivory floral motifs. The textured surface gives the colourway a gently tactile, crafted appearance rather than a flat printed look.

About this fabric

Small ivory, shield-like floral forms repeat across the teal ground in a compact geometric arrangement, with darker woven definition around each motif. The 5.7 cm vertical and 5.8 cm horizontal repeat keeps the pattern detailed and evenly paced across an upholstered surface. At 510 gsm and 137 cm usable width, this is a substantial fabric suited to upholstery work. The standard length is 40 m, making it practical for coordinated projects requiring repeated pattern placement.

How to use it

Use Dorset Teal on a statement armchair, dining seat or compact sofa, balancing its cool turquoise depth with ivory piping, warm oak and chalky neutral walls.

Use this cool teal ground with ivory upholstery, pale woods and softly patterned neutrals.

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