About this fabric

This Ellerdine fabric is woven in a 58% linen, 28% polyester and 14% acrylic blend, with a width of approximately 128cm and a repeat of V 39cm / H 64cm. The design shows circular floral medallions linked by narrow diagonal sprigs, all set on a warm ivory ground. In this colourway, the greens range from soft sage to deeper forest and teal-tinged accents, so the pattern reads crisp rather than heavy. The linen content gives the surface a natural, slightly dry look, while the polyester and acrylic help the fabric hold its pattern clearly. With no performance features noted, it is a decorative woven suitable for both upholstery and drapery where a smart, patterned finish is wanted.

How to use it

Use this green-on-cream palette to bring pattern into a study, dining room or bedroom without overwhelming the scheme. It sits well with oak, painted joinery and other muted botanicals, especially where a tailored country-house feel is wanted.

Use with warm neutrals and dark wood for a collected, tailored feel.

Pairs well with

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