About this fabric

From the C&F Classic Prints collection by Colefax and Fowler, Darsham Tomato/Blue is a 100% linen fabric with a repeat of approximately V 62cm / H 137cm and a width of approximately 137cm. The swatch shows a pale straw-beige ground carrying an all-over branch and flower design, with coral-tomato petals, muted blush centres and cool blue leaves that give the print a pleasing contrast. The linen weave shows through the surface, keeping the look crisp rather than glossy and helping the pattern feel relaxed as well as decorative. With no performance features noted and a fire code of √BM, it suits upholstered accents or drapery where you want the colour to stay bright but not overly hard-edged.

How to use it

The tomato red keeps this colourway cheerful and bold, while the blue leaf notes temper it enough for a classic sitting room or garden room. Pair it with painted wood, warm neutrals and ticking-stripe accessories to let the floral repeat remain the focal point.

Use this vivid floral linen for a statement armchair, occasional curtains, or coordinated cushions.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Darsham Tomato/Blue 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.
