Postelia Emerald/Lime

Postelia Emerald/Lime layers delicate botanical stems, feathery foliage, rounded seed pods and starburst lime flowerheads across a pale ivory ground. Its cool green palette is softened by grey, taupe and charcoal detailing, giving the large-scale design a light, illustrated feel.

About this fabric

This 300 gsm fabric has a 137 cm usable width, a 40 m standard length and a substantial 49 threads per cm. The 135 cm vertical and 137 cm horizontal repeat allows the pale ground and branching botanical composition to read as a broad, continuous arrangement. Muted emerald and sage leaves sit alongside sharper lime flowerheads, while grey-green pods and fine charcoal stems add depth without making the colourway feel dark. The combination of medium weight and crisp, spacious patterning makes it suitable for both drapery and upholstery applications.

How to use it

Use the ivory-led ground to brighten curtains or a Roman blind, then echo the lime flowerheads with a small accent cushion or painted detail. For upholstery, pair it with warm white, pale grey or natural wood so the cool emerald foliage remains the focal point.

A fresh, spacious botanical for curtains, occasional upholstery and statement seating where its pale ground can keep the room light.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Postelia Emerald/Lime 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.
