Water Meadow Sea Grasses Barley Flat

SS22 Images - Enchanted Garden, Geometrica, Water Meadow & Portland Fabric

This Water Meadow colourway shows a soft barley-beige ground with a pale, leaf-and-reed motif drifting across the cloth. The design reads light and airy, with a gentle natural texture that keeps the pattern feeling relaxed rather than busy.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, this fabric has a crisp yet approachable handle that suits both drapery and upholstery use. The 141cm usable width and 46cm by 46cm repeat make the tall meadow motif easy to plan across larger pieces. A 20,000 Martindale rating and General Domestic upholstery grade support everyday seating, while treatability for FR drapery and upholstery adds flexibility. Visually, the barley base is warm and subdued, and the off-white grasses sit softly on top, giving the surface a calm, sun-washed look. Better Cotton content adds a considered production note to a fabric that feels natural and understated.

How to use it

Use this colourway where you want pattern without strong contrast: it works especially well on Roman blinds, cushions or a lightly tailored armchair. The warm beige ground pairs neatly with oak, chalky whites and muted green accents.

A quiet neutral with a natural meadow pattern that layers easily into calm, airy schemes.

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.
