About this fabric

This colourway is built on a softly mottled stone background, overlaid with slender taupe and grey-beige stems that meander vertically across the design. Small sprays of dotted leaves and delicate fan-shaped foliage create a fine botanical rhythm without overpowering the pale ground. Made from 100% paper, it has an approximate vertical repeat of 20cm and horizontal repeat of 18cm. The low-contrast palette keeps the pattern gentle, while the warm stone tone gives it more depth than a plain off-white wallcovering.

How to use it

Use Stone across a bedroom, dressing room or quiet sitting room where its pale taupe ground can sit comfortably with chalky whites, natural woods and warm greige upholstery. Repeat the muted taupe-grey detailing in linen, ceramic or painted joinery for a softly coordinated scheme.

A quiet stone ground with fine taupe-grey botanical branches, suited to softly layered and elegant interiors.

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.
