Medici FR Fabric
Medici FR Thistle is a dark, moody plum colourway with a soft woven surface and a gently muted finish. The shade reads as a deep thistle purple, with brown undertones that keep it refined rather than bright.

About this fabric
This colourway has a dense, understated look, with the weave giving the surface a subtle horizontal texture that catches the light softly. Made from 100% polyester and measuring 140cm wide, it is a practical fabric for upholstery projects where a plain but characterful finish is needed. The 0cm pattern repeat makes it easy to plan and helps the colour do all the work, especially in this low-sheen plum tone. Care instruction NQT1< should be followed to keep the surface looking its best.
How to use it
Use this deep purple-brown on a sofa, dining chair or headboard for a more tailored, intimate feel. It pairs well with walnut wood, warm brass and cream accents to lift the richness of the colour.
A rich plum tone that brings depth and quiet luxury to tailored seating or structured drapery.

Pairs well with
Medici FR Thistle is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
