About this fabric

Fine, curling stems and stylised flower heads fill the surface, with the pale flowers and slate foliage picked out against charcoal-grey depth. Harissa brings a restrained terracotta warmth through selected petals, creating contrast without making the colourway feel bright or fiery. At 236 gsm and 140 cm wide, this is a versatile mid-weight suitable for upholstery and drapery. The pattern repeats vertically every 45.5 cm and horizontally every 34.5 cm, while the fabric is specified at 74.1 threads per cm.

How to use it

Pair it with warm ivory, chalky blue-grey and smoked charcoal for a calm, layered scheme, using the harissa petals as a small accent on cushions or painted wood. Its dense medium-scale repeat is particularly effective on an occasional chair, bench or full-length curtain where the botanical detail can be read.

Use this balanced mid-weight floral on upholstery, curtains or cushions where its cool slate and warm harissa accents can be echoed.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Montipora Harissa/Slate/Insence 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.
