About this fabric

Woven in 42% Linen, 38% Viscose and 20% Silk, Lucius has a refined handle that suits decorative interior use and gives the surface a gentle lustre. In this Forest colourway, the pattern reads as soft sage and muted forest green, with paler aqua-tinged highlights that lift the leafy forms against the creamy background. The large repeat, measuring approximately V 97cm / H 64cm, creates a relaxed but substantial rhythm across the cloth. At approximately 128cm wide and marked Q 8 + T 3, it is a considered choice for drapery and elegant soft furnishings.

How to use it

This cool green palette works well in rooms with painted woodwork, pale stone and natural timber, where the cream ground keeps the look light. Use it for full-length curtains or Roman blinds to bring a fresh but composed botanical note.

Use it for elegant curtains or a softer decorative scheme with creamy grounds.

Pairs well with

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