Amberley Parchment

Amberley Parchment pairs a warm, softly mottled parchment ground with a fine taupe floral damask. The low-contrast colouring gives the scrolling stems and botanical motifs a quiet, timeworn elegance.

About this fabric

This woven fabric is composed of 37% cotton, 28% linen and 35% rayon, with a 127 cm width. Its repeating design combines scrolling vines, stylised leaves, carnations and larger floral medallions in subdued taupe-grey against the creamy beige ground. The close tonal relationship between the pattern and background keeps the intricate detail gentle rather than stark, while the woven surface gives the design a softly tactile appearance. A 58 cm vertical repeat and 63.5 cm horizontal repeat make it suitable for considered curtain and bedspread layouts; professional dry cleaning is required.

How to use it

Use Amberley Parchment for full-length curtains in a warm neutral room, where its creamy beige ground can soften darker timber and antique finishes. It also brings a restrained, heritage feel to a bedspread when paired with oatmeal, stone and muted taupe accents.

A softly formal parchment ground with a delicate taupe damask, well suited to curtains and bedspreads.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Amberley Parchment without fighting it. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

Profile

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.
