About this fabric

The design is built from narrow vertical stripes, including delicate dotted olive bands, darker taupe pinlines and broader parchment-toned intervals that create subtle depth rather than a high-contrast graphic effect. Its 90% cotton and 10% jute composition is visible in the softly textured, natural-looking weave. At 134 cm wide, it is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads, with a 22.3 cm horizontal pattern repeat. Care instructions are professional dry cleaning only; do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use the warm parchment base to lighten a room with natural timber, or repeat the muted olive detailing in cushions and painted cabinetry. Its restrained stripe scale works equally well on a tailored chair, relaxed headboard or full-length curtain.

The warm parchment ground and finely detailed vertical striping suit tailored curtains, upholstered seating and calm bedroom schemes.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Rufus Stripe Parchment 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.
