About this fabric

This Baptista fabric combines 57% viscose and 43% silk, giving the floral design a smooth, refined handle and a gentle light-catching finish. The large repeat of approximately V 57cm by H 64cm supports the open, scrolling layout of poppy heads, trailing stems and small butterflies. In this colourway the background reads as a cool, misty silver rather than a stark grey, which makes the raspberry-pink petals and muted blue leaves feel crisp and decorative. At 128cm wide, it is well suited to full-length curtains and statement decorative schemes where the pattern can breathe.

How to use it

Use Oriental Poppy Silver in a room that needs pattern without heaviness; the cool silver ground keeps the palette fresh while the pink blooms add warmth. It works especially well with pale painted woodwork, polished timber and soft neutral upholstery.

A polished floral silk-viscose with a cool ground that lets the pink blooms stand out beautifully.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Oriental Poppy Silver 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.
