Spectrum Grape is a deep, cool grape-purple textile with a softly textured surface that shifts gently as it catches the light. Its near-solid appearance lets the saturated colour take the lead.

About this fabric

The 271gsm cloth has a fine, understated woven grain visible across the swatch, adding tactile depth without introducing a contrasting motif. The colour moves between plum, aubergine and muted berry depending on the light, giving the surface a richer, darker edge at the lower right. It has a 137cm usable width and a 40m standard length, making it practical for coordinated upholstery and drapery requirements. The supplied pattern repeats are 36.5cm vertically and 34.5cm horizontally, although this colourway reads visually as an almost uniform textured field.

How to use it

Use Spectrum Grape on a compact armchair, bench or pelmet where its cool berry depth can act as a confident focal colour. It can also bring a darker, more enveloping note to full-length curtains while the subtle weave keeps the finish composed rather than glossy.

Use this deep grape tone to bring saturated colour and quiet texture to upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

Spectrum Grape 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.
