Nara FabricM4081-04

Bengale Paon presents the Nara toile in a cool blue-grey tone, with softly printed jungle scenes and animals scattered across an off-white ground. The delicate shading gives the design a calm, airy look rather than a heavy contrast.

About this fabric

This Manuel Canovas fabric is woven in 100% cotton and has a width of approximately 135cm, with a vertical repeat of 69cm and horizontal repeat of 135cm. The print shows detailed toile-style vignettes of elephants, tigers, palm trees and dense foliage, all rendered in a muted blue-grey that feels crisp and slightly дымed against the pale ground. The colourway has a light, chalky quality that keeps the large-scale motif from feeling overpowering, while the fine line work preserves the scene detail. With no performance features noted and a fire code of √BM, it is best chosen for decorative projects where the pattern can be properly seen.

How to use it

The soft blue-grey palette works especially well with painted woods, pale linen neutrals and quiet heritage interiors. Use it for drapery or upholstery where you want a smart, tailored statement without strong colour saturation.

Use for statement upholstery or tailored drapery to let the toile scenes read clearly.

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.
