About this fabric
The swatch reads as a subdued amethyst rather than a bright violet, with gentle greyed depth that changes subtly across the surface. A fine, even texture gives the plain cloth quiet visual interest without introducing a motif or directional pattern. At 175 gsm, it has a lightweight profile that is well suited to drapery. The 290 cm usable width, 40 m standard length and 0 cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeats support broad, continuous drops with minimal pattern planning.
How to use it
Use Novara Amethyst for full-length curtains or relaxed blinds where its cool, dusty purple can soften a neutral room without becoming vivid. Pair it with warm ivory, mushroom or charcoal upholstery to bring out the shade’s gentle depth.
Use this muted amethyst as softly coloured drapery against warm neutrals, pale timber or deeper plum accents.

Pairs well with
Novara Amethyst is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
