About this fabric

This colourway reads as a subdued heathered plum, with cooler purple notes softened by brown-grey undertones and a fine, even woven texture. The surface has a low-key, slightly grainy appearance that helps the shade feel layered rather than flat. Made from 100% polyester and supplied at 140cm wide, it is a practical choice for upholstery projects where a calm, smart finish is wanted. The lack of a visible repeat makes it especially easy to use on clean-lined seating and cushions.

How to use it

Use this plum heather on an armchair or banquette to bring depth without loud contrast. It pairs well with pale oak, stone neutrals and brushed metal accents for a composed, modern room.

A versatile heathered purple that adds quiet depth to tailored seating.

Forza FR Heather 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.
