About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this fabric has the natural slub and matte surface you expect from a linen cloth, which helps the colours look softly chalked rather than bright. The repeat is approximately V 81cm / H 68cm, so the scrolling pattern and floral medallions read with clear scale and plenty of movement. In this colourway, the red is tempered into dusty rose and pink, while the green detailing appears pale, leafy and slightly weathered against the creamy ground. With a width of approximately 135cm and care code Q 8 + T 3, it is a practical decorative fabric for larger-scale schemes. The √BM fire code is also supplied for this exact cloth.

How to use it

This shade works well in elegant country rooms, especially where you want pattern without harsh contrast. Pair it with parchment walls, mossy accents and antique timber so the rose and sage notes feel layered and calm.

Use with quiet neutrals and aged woods so the rose-pink ornament can stand forward.

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.
