About this fabric

This woven fabric has a lively, small-to-medium geometric repeat that reads as a stylised ikat or damask-inspired motif, softened by the cotton-linen blend. The colourway balances blush coral red with sage green and touches of warm neutral, giving the pattern a faded, sun-washed look rather than a sharp contrast. At approximately 137cm wide with a vertical repeat of 31cm and horizontal repeat of 34cm, it is practical for patterned upholstery or drapery where the motif can be planned carefully. The 73% cotton and 27% linen composition adds a natural, slightly nubbly handle, while the Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code are supplied for specification purposes.

How to use it

Use it on a slipper chair, cushion, or relaxed curtains where the coral and green palette can soften painted timber, pale oak, or muted white walls. It sits neatly with dusty pinks, mossy greens, and brass details for a tailored but approachable room.

Pair with quiet neutrals and aged brass to let the coral-red motifs and sage accents stand out.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Samson Red/Green 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.
