About this fabric

This jacquard is filled with paired birds, stylised blooms and curling foliage, arranged in a dense, symmetrical Morris-inspired design. The plum ground reads warm and saturated, while the blush and cream motifs lift the pattern without losing its dramatic depth. At 256gsm and 145cm wide, it has the substance for upholstery as well as drapery. The pattern repeat measures 58cm vertically by 48.5cm horizontally, so the larger birds and floral groupings will remain clearly visible across a finished piece.

How to use it

Use the deep plum ground to bring depth to a reading chair, headboard or tailored cushion, balancing it with warm ivory, aged timber and muted rose accents. As curtains, its pale birds and foliage will create a detailed, traditional focal point rather than a plain block of colour.

The rich plum ground and pale Morris birds make a striking choice for statement upholstery, curtains or cushions.

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.
