About this fabric

This 222gsm fabric has a confident mid-weight handle, making it suitable for both upholstery and drapery. The 137cm usable width frames the large-scale composition, while the 57cm vertical and 34.5cm horizontal pattern repeats help plan the placement of the zebras, spotted creatures, birds and ornamental foliage. The saturated magenta background gives the monochrome illustration a warmer, more dramatic energy than a neutral colourway, with the pale animal markings and silver-grey details catching the eye. It is supplied in a standard 40m length.

How to use it

Use Kruger Magenta on a statement chair, occasional sofa or full-height curtains where its vivid pink ground can become the room’s focal point. Balance the busy wildlife scene with black, charcoal, ivory and dark wood rather than competing patterned accents.

Pair the saturated magenta ground with monochrome upholstery, dark timber or polished metal for a graphic, theatrical scheme.

Pairs well with

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