Blythe Leaf in Oaken shows a fine all-over leaf trail in a soft sage green on a pale ground. The small-scale pattern reads calm and airy, with just enough detail to give the cloth movement.

About this fabric

This colourway has a light, fresh feel, with the green motif sitting gently against the neutral base rather than shouting from it. The design is supplied as a fabric with a repeat of approximately V 13cm and H 14cm, and a width of approximately 141cm, so it works neatly across wider pieces or trimmed window furnishings. Its 51% cotton and 49% linen composition suggests a natural handle, and the visible weave and crisp printed effect suit its understated, leafy character. The tone is cool-to-neutral sage, making the pattern feel softened and easy to live with rather than overly bright or herbal.

How to use it

Use it where you want a quiet botanical note: on an occasional chair, cushions, or relaxed curtains. The pale ground and soft green leaf pattern pair especially well with oak, chalky paint colours, and washed linens.

A fresh sage leaf motif that suits both loose upholstery and light curtains.

Pairs well with

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