Mallow Apple/Linen

Mallow Apple/Linen has a soft cream ground scattered with pale sage foliage, rounded blue flower heads and delicate leafy detail. Its gently faded palette gives the closely drawn pattern a light, restful character.

About this fabric

At 226gsm, this mid-weight fabric has a fine, even surface that suits both upholstery and drapery. The colourway combines cool, muted sage green with warm cream and softly washed blue, while the small-to-medium floral scale keeps the overall field light rather than busy. The pattern repeats every 26.5cm vertically and 46cm horizontally, creating a continuous arrangement of flowers and curling leaves across the 138cm usable width. A standard length of 40m supports larger made-to-measure projects.

How to use it

Use the sage and cream balance to soften a window seat, occasional chair or full-length curtain, pairing it with pale timber, chalky paintwork and restrained blue accents. The muted blue flower heads also offer a subtle link to faded denim or blue-grey upholstery.

A softly coloured Morris floral that brings gentle sage, cream and muted blue into upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Mallow Apple/Linen 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.
