About this fabric

This Porter & Stone fabric is composed of 100% polyester and measures 145cm wide, with a pattern repeat of 29.5cm. The print shows rows of tiny stylised trees in muted sage, beige and soft gold, set against an off-white ground that reads warm rather than stark. The overall effect is light and airy, with just enough variation in the leaves and trunk detail to give the surface a hand-finished feel. With no performance features noted, it is best considered for decorative use where its calm, pastoral pattern can take centre stage.

How to use it

Use this antique cream colourway to soften a room with pale timber, natural linen and painted woodwork. It works especially well where you want a small-scale pattern that adds interest without making the space feel busy.

A softly aged cream ground with delicate tree motifs suits elegant curtains or lightly used upholstery.

Pairs well with

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