About this fabric

The embroidered-looking bursts are formed from fine, directional strokes, with each small botanical head opening out like a stylised seedhead or palm. Teal and turquoise accents bring a cool clarity, while navy centres, grey sprays and olive-zest highlights add depth without overwhelming the ivory background. With a 320 gsm weight, 126 cm usable width and 61 cm vertical by 63 cm horizontal pattern repeat, this is a substantial, versatile textile for coordinated upholstery and drapery schemes. Its 27 threads per cm give the ground a closely made appearance, supporting the detailed linear motif.

How to use it

Pair this colourway with pale timber, warm ivory upholstery and muted blue-green accessories to balance its cool teal base. The zest accents work especially well as small highlights in cushions, piping or painted furniture.

Use the cool teal and zest sprays to bring lively colour to upholstery, curtains or cushions against warm ivory and natural wood.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Aucuba Embroidery Teal/Zest 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.
