About this fabric

This colourway has a cool, saturated plum tone that reads richer than a straightforward violet, with a restrained softness across the surface. The close, fine texture creates gentle tonal variation rather than a visible motif, keeping the design understated and versatile. Light catches the subtly uneven weave in places, preventing the deep purple from appearing flat. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the deep plum shade to bring depth to a tailored chair, headboard or sofa, pairing it with warm neutrals, smoked timber and aged brass. Its quiet woven texture also works well against softer mauves or dusky pinks for a tonal scheme.

A deep plum tone with subtle surface texture, suited to tailored upholstery and richly coloured interiors.

Pairs well with

Soda Fr Purple 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.
