About this fabric

This colourway reads as a bright jewel blue rather than a soft navy, and the surface pattern stands out crisply against it. The design has a large repeat, approximately V 86cm / H 70cm, and the motif carries across the width in rows of rounded floral medallions and fine curling stems. Woven in 45% Polyester, 36% Viscose and 19% Silk, it has the refined, lightly lustrous feel that suits a decorative textile. At approximately 140cm wide, it works well for statement curtains, upholstered panels or elegant soft furnishings where the saturated blue ground can anchor the room. The mix of cream, blush, green and warm accent tones keeps the fabric from feeling flat, and the cool base makes those colours appear especially fresh.

How to use it

Pair this sapphire colourway with pale oak, chalky neutrals or burnished brass to balance its vivid depth. It is especially striking as full-length drapery in a room with restrained upholstery and clear daylight.

Use with quiet linens or polished wood to let the jewel-blue ground and lively florals stay centre stage.

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.
