Berenson Old Pink shows a quiet, softly weathered pink laid into a small-scale checked weave. The overall effect is gentle and airy, with a faintly chalky warmth that keeps the pattern from feeling too sweet.

About this fabric

This Bampton fabric by Colefax and Fowler has a 140cm approximate width and a composition of 46% cotton, 17% viscose, 15% polyester, 14% linen and 8% wool. The surface reads as a fine, tactile weave with a subtle check structure, giving the colourway a lightly textured, hand-finished look. Berenson Old Pink is a muted blush with beige undertones, so the pattern sits softly rather than high-contrast, and the small repeat of V 7cm / H 5cm approx keeps the design calm and close-knit. Its balanced cloth body makes it suitable for both upholstery and drapery where a restrained decorative texture is wanted. The care code Q 8 < T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for reference.

How to use it

Use this soft old pink to warm oak furniture, plaster-toned walls and natural linens without overpowering the room. It works especially well on a chaise, headboard or relaxed curtains where the subdued check can be appreciated in daylight.

A muted pink that feels refined and easy to layer with linen, oak and deeper rose accents.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Berenson Old Pink 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.
