Delft Tulips Pink/Ochre

Delft Tulips Pink/Ochre shows a painterly trail of tulips across a warm ivory ground, with pink petals, ochre blooms and soft green foliage. The design feels airy and decorative, but the scale gives it real presence.

About this fabric

Printed on 100% cotton, Delft Tulips Pink/Ochre has a large repeat of approximately V 80cm and H 44cm, so the floral stems drift across the cloth in generous intervals. The ground reads as a soft ivory rather than a stark white, which lets the pink accents and ochre-gold petals feel mellow and slightly faded rather than brightly fresh. Fine green leaves and tiny scattered blossoms add movement without making the pattern feel busy. With a width of approximately 136cm and no performance features noted, this is a decorative cotton suited to classic interior schemes.

How to use it

The warm ivory base makes this colourway easy to place against painted woodwork, especially sage, putty or antique white. Use it for a tailored sofa or full-length curtains where the pink and ochre flowers can read clearly against plenty of light.

Pair with understated trims so the painterly tulips stay the focus.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Delft Tulips Pink/Ochre 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.
