FORT122 presents a richly shaded dusky plum chenille with sweeping botanical leaves worked in deeper, near-black purple tones. The textured surface gives the colourway a softly tactile, layered appearance as the light moves across the cloth.

About this fabric

This 100% polyester chenille combines a muted plum-purple ground with large curling leaves and trailing botanical forms in dark, densely textured accents. The tonal pattern has strong visual depth without introducing a second bright colour, giving the design a moody, enveloping character. At 138cm wide, it is supplied as a domestic upholstery fabric and is machine washable for aftercare. Its flame retardancy is rated for domestic cigarette and match use, with treatment available to achieve Crib 5 contract grade.

How to use it

Use FORT122 on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its dusky plum tone can anchor a room. Balance the large botanical scale with quiet cream, taupe or smoky-grey plains, while dark wood and antique metal bring out the deeper leaf detailing.

Pair the dusky plum ground with warm neutrals, aged timber and darker metal accents for a richly layered upholstered scheme.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside FORT122 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.
