About this fabric

The design is formed from repeated sweeping stems, small leaflets and fuller botanical sprays, with taupe-grey outlines adding definition around the sage and aqua foliage. Its pale ivory ground keeps the colourway airy, while the cool blue-green tones read softened rather than bright or saturated. Woven from 57% linen, 32% spun viscose, 9% spun polyester and 2% cotton, the fabric is 132 cm wide. The pattern repeats every 58 cm vertically and 33 cm horizontally, and the supplied usage is curtains and bedspreads; it must be professionally dry cleaned and should not be washed, bleached or ironed.

How to use it

Use the cool sage and aqua foliage against warm ivory, chalky beige or pale blue walls, where the taupe stems can connect with natural wood and softly aged finishes. It is particularly effective as full-length curtains or a coordinated bedspread, allowing the scrolling repeat to remain visible.

A fine linen-blend textile with a softly traditional botanical scroll, well suited to curtains and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Filkins Sage/Aqua 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.
