About this fabric

This Olander fabric is composed of 64% Linen, 25% Cotton and 11% Polyamide, with an approximate width of 140cm and a vertical repeat of 67cm / horizontal repeat of 140cm. The print shown here feels delicate rather than dense, with soft pink flowers, warm apricot highlights and muted green leaves drifting over a creamy off-white base. The overall effect is fresh and quietly decorative, with enough movement in the stems and petals to keep the design from feeling rigid. Its mixed-fibre construction and mid-weight character make it suitable for both upholstery and drapery where a patterned floral with a gentle hand is wanted.

How to use it

Use this colourway where you want a room to feel light, romantic and slightly country-house in mood. It pairs well with painted timber, pale oak and softly toned stripes or checks.

Use it to bring a fresh, painterly softness to a room.

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