About this fabric

This fabric is a 100% cotton cloth with an approximate width of 145cm and a large repeat of V 105cm / H 145cm, so the balloon motif has room to show its detail. In this Tomate colourway, the background is a calm beige that keeps the design light, while the balloons add sharp notes of tomato red, coral, rose pink, lavender and soft orange. The printed surface has a smooth, matt cotton hand rather than a heavy pile, which suits the airy character of the artwork. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use it where the colour can stay bright against quieter walls, such as lined curtains in a study, bedroom or dressing room. The beige ground makes the pink-and-orange balloons feel cheerful rather than overwhelming.

Use this lively balloon print for statement curtains or decorative panels with a playful, elegant feel.

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.
