About this fabric

The large-scale design places two zebras among layered fern-like leaves, peacock-feather details, spotted seed pods and a distant waterfall landscape. Its restrained blue-grey and near-black drawing gives the ivory ground a cool, quietly dramatic depth rather than a bright or high-contrast colour effect. This 225 gsm fabric has a 137 cm usable width, with a substantial 88 cm vertical repeat and 68.5 cm horizontal repeat to plan around when positioning the animals and scenery. The standard length is 40 m.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey colourway on a feature chair, bench or headboard where the zebra figures can be centred, or let the 88 cm repeat unfold across full-length curtains. Pair it with ivory, charcoal and weathered blue to echo the printed ground and illustrated landscape.

Use the expansive repeat to frame the zebras and botanical detail across upholstery or full-length curtains.

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