About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this colourway has the relaxed texture and natural slub that suit Colefax and Fowler's Cristabel design beautifully. The repeat is V 43cm / H 61cm approx, creating a balanced all-over rhythm of delicate branching stems, leaf clusters and pendulous flower forms. In this version, the red reads vivid but slightly softened, while the greens sit between forest and teal, so the pattern feels lively without becoming overly bright. With a width of 122cm approx and a fire code of √BM, it is a practical decorative textile with a refined country-house feel.

How to use it

Use this colourway to bring a fresh, tailored note to upholstery, loose covers or drapes against pale wood, painted joinery or stone. Its cream ground keeps the fuchsia and green motif light enough for bright sitting rooms and calm bedrooms alike.

A fresh cream ground with lively fuchsia-red and forest-green sprigs suits tailored country interiors beautifully.

Pairs well with

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