About this fabric

This colourway is printed on 100% linen and has a repeat of approximately V 81cm / H 138cm, with a width of approximately 138cm. The fabric reads light and breathable in the image, with a dry, natural linen texture that suits the intricate, scattered motif. Soft olive foliage, washed blue-grey leaves and small tomato-rose accents sit quietly against the creamy ground, so the design feels decorative without becoming heavy. The large repeat gives the pattern a graceful, expansive rhythm that works especially well where the artwork can be seen from a little distance.

How to use it

Use it for lined curtains, Roman blinds or a statement upholstered headboard where the warm cream base can keep the room feeling open. It pairs beautifully with faded greens, chalky blues and pale wood finishes.

Use for elegant curtains or soft furnishings where the delicate tropical palette can read without overwhelming the room.

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.
