About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this 138 cm wide fabric shows repeated paisley forms filled with delicate florals, scrolling vines and small blue-green flower heads. The colourway is cooler and more muted than a bright navy, with teal accents adding depth against the soft natural ground. Its vertical pattern repeat is 60 cm and its horizontal repeat is 34.5 cm, allowing the ornamental layout to be planned across curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. Do not wash or bleach; this fabric must be professionally dry cleaned and should not be ironed.

How to use it

Use the warm ground as a bridge between pale neutrals and natural timber, while the muted blue and teal details bring definition to a window seat, upholstered headboard or full-length curtains. Pair it with quiet ivory, faded denim and textured blue-green linens so the paisley remains the focus.

The cool blue and teal paisley pattern brings detailed, collected character to curtains, upholstery and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

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