About this fabric

This substantial 490gsm fabric is well suited to upholstery, with the weight giving the densely repeated botanical pattern a grounded presence. The 45cm vertical and 28cm horizontal repeats create an evenly filled design of curling willow-like branches and layered leaves. Pale blue and silvery blue foliage stands clearly against the deeper denim background, while slender olive lines introduce warmth without breaking the cool mood. Supplied in a standard 20m length and with a 130cm usable width, it offers practical coverage for coordinated upholstery projects.

How to use it

Use this cool denim colourway on a reading chair, headboard or sofa where its pale foliage can stand out against warm timber, ivory, chalk or muted olive accents. The dense repeat works especially well as a principal upholstery fabric rather than a quiet plain.

Use the cool denim ground with pale blue foliage to bring layered colour to upholstered seating.

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