About this fabric

The all-over floral design combines rounded leaves and open, softly blurred blooms, creating a fluid botanical surface rather than a sharply outlined print. Its cool blue-grey and slate tones sit lightly against the pale ivory ground, while darker brushed centres add depth without making the colourway feel heavy. At 374 gsm and 140 cm wide, this is a substantial, versatile fabric suited to both upholstery and drapery applications. The pattern has a 67.5 cm vertical repeat and a 140 cm horizontal repeat, with 26.4 threads per centimetre.

How to use it

Use this cool Awakening colourway to soften a blue-grey occasional chair, headboard or curtain scheme with ivory walls and pale timber. It also works as a quiet botanical counterpoint to deeper navy, charcoal or faded denim accents.

Its cool, misted blue-grey florals bring a quietly decorative finish to upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Grounded Celestial/Awakening 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.
