About this fabric

The pattern is built from small ivory marks arranged in undulating vertical streams, creating a gentle sense of movement across the cloth. Against the ochre ground, the pale dots read clearly without becoming stark, giving the design a softened, earthy contrast. The colour has a warm, golden-brown cast that feels deeper in the denser areas of the pattern and lighter where the ground opens out. The visible fine texture keeps the surface considered and tactile rather than flat.

How to use it

Use Gentiane to warm a study, snug or relaxed sitting room, pairing its ochre tone with walnut, aged brass, cream boucle or deep olive accents. The flowing dotted pattern would suit a tailored chair, coordinating cushions or full-length curtains.

Use the muted ochre ground to bring warmth to tailored seating, cushions or softly filtered curtains.

Pairs well with

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