About this fabric

This Cristabel fabric is woven in 100% linen and has an approximate width of 134cm, with a vertical repeat of 79cm in a half-drop and a horizontal repeat of about 88cm. The design is a large-scale fern print with overlapping fronds, and in this colourway the leaves shift between deep forest green, teal-leaning green and lighter moss tones. The natural linen ground gives the surface a relaxed, slightly rustic look that suits the organic motif. Its medium-light appearance makes the pattern feel fresh rather than heavy, while the deep green accents still give it plenty of presence.

How to use it

Use this colourway for curtains, blinds or relaxed upholstery accents where the forest greens can bring a garden-room feel indoors. It works especially well with pale oak, wicker and chalky neutrals that echo the cream ground and soften the darker leaf shapes.

Pair with warm neutrals and natural woods to let the leafy green pattern stay fresh and layered.

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