About this fabric

The swatch presents a rich muted purple, close to aubergine, with a cool depth that becomes slightly lighter where the fine weave catches the light. A minute diagonal structure is visible across the surface, creating texture rather than a printed pattern. The dense, even construction reads as a versatile mid-weight cloth suited to both upholstery and drapery. No composition, width or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Apache Purple to bring depth to a restrained scheme of charcoal, warm grey or aged brass. It would give a tailored chair, headboard or full-length curtain a quietly dramatic finish without introducing a bold pattern.

A compact woven texture and deep purple tone suit tailored upholstery, cushions or softly structured drapery.

Pairs well with

Apache Purple is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
