About this fabric

The swatch is filled with overlapping flowers in varied scales, from tiny star-like forms to larger rounded blossoms, creating a richly layered surface. Its Meadow palette is notably muted rather than vivid, with cool lilac and pale pink lifted by cream petals and grounded by sage, olive and taupe-grey accents. The fabric is supplied as a cotton-linen textile and is catalogued for fabric use; no performance features are noted. The overall impression is relaxed and softly vintage, with the varied floral detail giving the colourway depth across the surface.

How to use it

Use Meadow on a relaxed armchair, curtain or loose-covered seating where its sage and olive base can sit comfortably with linen, timber and warm neutral walls. Pick out the dusty lilac and faded pink flowers in cushions or small painted accents for a gently collected scheme.

Pair the soft sage, cream and lilac palette with natural wood, warm neutrals or softly aged painted furniture.

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.
