Paphos Bronze

Alchemy Fabric

Paphos Bronze pairs a rich bronze ground with a softly metallic trellis effect that catches the light across the surface. The result is a warm, structured fabric with a confident geometric rhythm.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as a deep burnt bronze with terracotta warmth, giving the looping trellis motif a strong but not flashy presence. The woven surface has a subtle sheen in the pattern lines, while the ground looks slightly matte and gives the design useful depth. With a width of 140cm and a 56% cotton, 44% polyester composition, it feels like a practical upholstery fabric with enough body for tailored pieces. The pattern repeat is 0cm, so the design runs continuously without a set drop, which is useful when planning larger seating runs or panelled applications. Care code BQV1< is supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use it on an accent chair, ottoman or banquette where the bronze ground can sit against walnut, oak or blackened metal. Its warm terracotta cast works especially well with deep greens, tobacco leather and aged brass.

A warm bronze tone that gives the bold trellis pattern a refined, textured edge.

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