About this fabric

The cool aqua background gives this colourway a fresh, almost luminous quality, while charcoal, black and white animal markings bring strong contrast and visual depth. Tigers, spotted cats, feathers, leaves and suspended rosette-like flowers are arranged among curling black ornamental forms, making the large-scale design especially noticeable across the swatch. At 225 gsm, the fabric has a versatile mid-weight presence suited to both upholstery and drapery. It has a 137 cm usable width, a 40 m standard length and a substantial 62.5 cm vertical by 68.5 cm horizontal pattern repeat for planning the placement of the illustrated motifs.

How to use it

Pair Caspian Aqua with crisp white, charcoal and deep teal accents to echo the artwork’s cool tonal contrast. It makes an expressive choice for a feature armchair, occasional upholstery or curtains where the aqua ground can bring lightness to the room.

Use the cool aqua ground to brighten a statement chair, headboard or full-length curtain while letting the monochrome animals lead.

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.
