Clarinda Old Pink

Jardine FabricF4699-02

Clarinda Old Pink is shown here on a soft dusty pink ground with trailing floral bouquets in cream, taupe and faded sage tones. The pattern reads romantic and refined, with a gently aged look rather than a bright, fresh pink.

About this fabric

This Clarinda colourway combines 35% cotton, 35% linen and 30% viscose, giving the cloth a natural matte character with a smooth enough finish for versatile decorating use. The large floral repeat, approximately V 65cm and H 68cm, is visible in the paired vertical garlands that run across the width of the fabric. Old Pink is a muted blush with warm, powdery depth, and the motifs are softened further by cream, mushroom, pale green and lavender accents. At 140cm wide, it offers a generous scale for curtains or upholstered pieces where the flowing pattern can be appreciated. The overall effect is decorative but restrained, with enough body for both upholstery and drapery projects.

How to use it

Use this old pink on a statement armchair, bedroom curtains or a relaxed sofa where the muted blush can warm the room without feeling sugary. It pairs especially well with chalky neutrals, aged brass and painted timber finishes.

A muted blush ground that softens the painterly florals and suits elegant layered interiors.

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.
