Wave Fabric

Wave Fennel is a softly textured Kirkby Design fabric in a pale grey-green fennel shade. Fine vertical striations run through the surface, giving the light colour gentle movement without a strong printed motif.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a cool, muted green softened with grey, rather than a bright botanical shade. Across the swatch, closely spaced vertical threads create an irregular linear texture, with subtle variations in lightness that keep the surface from appearing flat. The weave has a calm, tactile character and a softly relaxed formality. Its balanced appearance makes it suitable to consider for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Use Wave Fennel to bring a quiet, cool green note to a neutral room, particularly on a relaxed armchair, sofa or full-length curtain. Pair it with warm ivory, pale timber and soft grey to let the fine vertical texture remain visible.

Its pale grey-green ground and fine vertical texture suit relaxed upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with

Wave Fennel 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.
