Kalpa Antique

About this fabric

The colourway combines a muted antique-gold ground with softly contrasting cream geometric lines, giving the pattern depth without a harsh black-and-white effect. Its compact interlocking motif repeats at 19.8 cm vertically and 17.2 cm horizontally, so the design reads as a consistent all-over texture across the width. At 252 gsm with 38 threads per centimetre, this is a substantial mid-weight fabric with a visibly fine, closely made surface. The usable width is 137 cm.

How to use it

Use Kalpa Antique to bring warmth to a neutral room, particularly on an occasional chair, dining seat or tailored blind where its small cream-and-gold geometry can be appreciated up close. Pair it with chalky ivory, oat and aged timber rather than bright white to preserve its softly antique character.

A versatile mid-weight textile whose warm antique-gold ground and precise small-scale geometry suit both upholstered pieces and soft furnishings.

Pairs well with

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