Lava FR Duck Egg

Shimmer FR Fabric

Lava FR Duck Egg has a cool duck-egg teal ground with a cracked, stone-like metallic overlay that catches the light in pale silver. The overall effect is textured and energetic, with a softly weathered finish.

About this fabric

This colourway combines muted teal-blue patches with warmer taupe-brown undertones and bright ivory crackle lines, giving the design a layered, mineral look. The 93% polyester and 7% lurex composition adds a subtle shimmer that lifts the surface without making it overly glossy. At 140cm wide, with a 35.5cm vertical repeat and 36cm horizontal repeat, it is well suited to statement upholstery or confident drapery where the full pattern can be appreciated. The mood is cool and contemporary, with enough movement in the print to soften structured furniture and add depth to plain schemes.

How to use it

Use it on an accent chair, ottoman or relaxed curtains where the duck-egg teal can sit against oak, chalky white or brushed brass. Its cool metallic crackle works especially well in rooms that need a little pattern without adding visual heaviness.

Pair with warm neutrals and pale timber to let the crackled metallic pattern do the talking.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Lava FR Duck Egg 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.
