Water Meadow Sea Grasses Dove Flat

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

This Dove Flat colourway softens the Water Meadow sea grass motif into a cool, misty grey on a pale ground. The layered reeds and seed heads read quietly but clearly, with the woven texture adding gentle depth.

About this fabric

Water Meadow Sea Grasses Dove Flat is woven in 100% cotton and has a usable width of 141cm with a 46cm horizontal and vertical pattern repeat. The design shows tall meadow grasses and feathery stems in an etched, airy pattern that sits neatly over a fine horizontal slub effect. In this colourway, the palette stays muted and light, with soft dove grey tones that feel fresh rather than stark and give the motif a calm, coastal quality. With a Martindale of 20,000 and general domestic upholstery grade, it is suitable for upholstery, drapery and accessories, and it can be treated for FR use on both drapery and upholstery.

How to use it

Use this restrained grey version to bring pattern to a bedroom, sitting room or conservatory without overpowering the scheme. It works especially well with pale timber, shell whites and layered neutral textures.

Pair it with pale oak and chalky linens for an airy, understated look.

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.
