About this fabric

This colourway reads as a muted amethyst purple, cooler and more shadowed than a vivid violet. Fine diagonal lines are visible across the face, creating a delicate woven texture rather than a printed motif. The sateen surface catches the light softly, lifting parts of the purple while retaining an even, composed appearance. No composition, width, rub test or performance features have been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Liso Amethyst for full-length curtains or relaxed Roman blinds where its cool purple tone can bring depth without becoming overly bright. Pair it with warm neutrals, smoked wood and brushed metal to balance the shade’s quiet blue-violet cast.

A cool amethyst sateen with a restrained lustre, suited to elegant curtains and soft window treatments.

Liso Amethyst is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
