About this fabric

Yvette Cream/Leaf from the Hailsham collection by Colefax and Fowler is woven in 100% linen and measures approximately 140cm wide, with a vertical repeat of 75cm and horizontal repeat of 140cm. The fabric shows a pale ivory ground with loose, botanical sprigs in muted sage and soft apple green, touched with fine yellow-green centres and warm stem lines. Its printed floral trail feels light rather than dense, with enough space between motifs to keep the overall effect open and breathable. The linen base adds a natural, gently textured finish that suits rooms where you want pattern without heaviness.

How to use it

Use this soft green-on-cream colourway with pale timber, painted joinery, and quiet neutrals to keep the room feeling lifted. It works especially well where a calm botanical note is wanted without losing a refined, country-house look.

A fresh sage-and-cream trail that brings a light, airy refinement to classic interiors.

Pairs well with

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