About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, this fabric has a usable width of 140 cm and a large repeat of 17 cm horizontally by 32 cm vertically, giving the motif room to show its full rhythm. The visible palette is a crisp cream base with vivid absinthe greens, softened by teal and olive details that keep the design feeling fresh rather than heavy. Its 20,000 Martindale rub test and General Domestic upholstery grade make it suitable for everyday seating, while FR treatment allows it to be used for drapery and upholstery. The pattern has a lively, stylised leaf-and-flower feel that catches the light clearly against the pale ground, making the colourway appear bright and airy.

How to use it

Use it for statement cushions, loose covers or tailored curtains where the cream background can keep the room feeling open. It works especially well with pale oak, white paintwork and other cool greens for a crisp, layered scheme.

Pair with crisp linens and pale timber to let the lively green pattern stay fresh rather than overpowering.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Rhapsody Absinthe Wavy 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.
