About this fabric

This Theodore fabric is woven in 100% linen and comes in a width of approximately 140cm, with a large vertical repeat of 88cm and horizontal repeat of about 93cm in a half-drop layout. The print reads as a lively botanical with layered leaves, paisley shapes and small floral details, all set on an understated cream background. Tomato red gives the pattern its strongest accent, while the aqua notes and pale green foliage soften it into a lighter, more decorative palette. The visible linen texture and the printed repeat make it well suited to statement soft furnishings where a smart, relaxed finish is wanted. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM apply to this fabric.

How to use it

This colourway works well on upholstered accent pieces, cushions or blinds where the cream ground can brighten a room. Pair it with warm timber, chalky neutrals and touches of aqua or terracotta to echo the pattern’s tone.

Use with natural woods and quiet plains so the tomato and aqua pattern can lead the room.

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