About this fabric

Catalogued as a velvet, Tiger Beat Papaya has no performance features noted in the supplied specification. Against an ivory, lightly striated ground, irregular horizontal bands appear in saturated papaya orange and deep green, while a narrow vertical chain of alternating scalloped forms runs through the centre. The coloured marks have a tactile, softly textured edge that contrasts with the finer ground, adding depth to the compact pattern. Its warm orange-led palette reads lively and graphic rather than muted.

How to use it

Use this warm papaya colourway on an accent chair, headboard or statement cushion, where the ivory ground can sit comfortably beside natural timber and the green details can be echoed in plain textiles or painted joinery.

Pair the warm papaya and green accents with ivory, natural wood or deep green upholstery details for a lively graphic interior.

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.
