About this fabric

This colourway reads as a saturated blue-green, darker and cooler than a conventional turquoise, with a restrained, sophisticated mood. A fine crosshatched weave is visible across the surface, creating gentle tonal variation rather than a distinct motif. The texture remains low contrast, allowing the petrol shade to provide the visual focus while retaining a soft, tactile appearance. No performance features or further specification data have been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Sahara Iii Petrol to bring cool depth to a seating scheme, or carry its blue-green tone into full-length curtains for a more enveloping effect. It pairs especially well with warm timber, aged brass and soft neutrals that balance its saturated colour.

A cool, deep petrol teal with a fine woven texture for understated upholstery or drapery.

Pairs well with

Sahara Iii Petrol 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.
