Melbury Green

Name: Melbury Green

Melbury Green pairs a soft sage ground with an elegant scrolling damask drawn in lighter green and warm neutral outlines. The result is fresh rather than heavy, with the pattern sitting gently across the linen.

About this fabric

This Colefax and Fowler fabric is 100% linen, 137cm wide, with an approximate vertical repeat of 76cm and horizontal repeat of 45.5cm. The visible weave reads matte and natural, giving the damask a relaxed crispness rather than a glossy finish. In this colourway, the leafy motifs appear in a muted sage tone that feels cool and airy against the pale cream background, while the fine outlines add just enough definition to keep the design smart. With no performance features noted and a fire code of √CM, it suits decorative schemes that want classical pattern without visual weight.

How to use it

Use Melbury Green on curtains, loose covers or an accent chair where the soft sage will sit quietly beside painted woodwork and pale timber. It also works well in rooms that need pattern but not strong contrast, especially against ivory, putty or weathered oak.

Its pale sage tone brings a fresh, tailored feel to classic interiors.

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