Rhapsody Ruby Wavy

Name: Rhapsody Ruby Wavy
Brand: iliv

Rhapsody Ruby Wavy pairs a vivid ruby ground with a lively, multi-coloured floral motif that feels richly embroidered from a distance. The pattern’s bold blues, teal, orange and olive accents give the cloth a spirited, jewel-bright energy.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton, this fabric has a usable width of 140cm and a 17cm horizontal by 32cm vertical pattern repeat, giving the design a confident, rhythmic scale. The visible texture reads as a smooth decorative cloth rather than a heavy pile, with the printed motif sitting cleanly against the red ground. A Martindale score of 20,000 and General Domestic upholstery grade make it suitable for everyday seating as well as drapery and accessories. It is treatable for FR drapery and upholstery, and the colour fastness rating of 5 supports dependable use in rooms with regular light exposure. Better Cotton content adds a considered sourcing note to this high-impact colourway.

How to use it

This ruby version works especially well where you want colour to feel warm and theatrical, such as statement curtains, accent chairs or a striking blind. Pair it with painted wood, dark timbers or plain linens so the blue and orange petals can take centre stage.

Use it to bring a bold, jewel-box flourish to curtains, cushions or statement upholstery.

Pairs well with

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