Savanna Aubergine

Plains & Semi Plains Fabric

Savanna Aubergine is a deep plum plain with a softly textured cotton surface and a quiet, even finish. The colour reads as a rich aubergine with a cool undertone and low sheen.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, Savanna Aubergine has a natural matte look and a fine slubbed texture that gives the plain cloth subtle movement. The 140cm width and 0cm pattern repeat make it an easy, unfussy choice for tailored schemes where the colour does the work. In this swatch, the aubergine sits between plum and damson, appearing dark and enveloping rather than bright or red. It is a smart, versatile plain for upholstery or drapery where a deeper purple note is wanted without pattern.

How to use it

Use this shade to add depth against pale neutrals, especially warm stone, ivory, or tobacco finishes. It also pairs well with brushed brass and walnut, where the plum tone feels especially rich.

A rich plum tone that works well as a tailored upholstery or elegant curtain fabric.

Savanna Aubergine 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.
