About this fabric

The small branching motif is tightly distributed across the swatch, creating an almost lace-like impression rather than a bold, open floral. Its cherry-red shade is softened and slightly dusty, sitting between berry and burgundy against the pale blush-ivory background. The close pattern gives the cloth visual depth at a distance, while the fine, even surface remains delicate up close. As a fine-looking drapery fabric, this colourway is particularly suited to curtains where its detailed surface can read as a gentle all-over veil.

How to use it

Use Griotte at the window in a pale, quiet room, pairing its muted cherry-red sprigs with blush, warm ivory or soft grey upholstery. Keep surrounding patterns understated so the dense botanical detail remains the focal point.

A fine-looking botanical textile for curtains and relaxed window treatments, with muted cherry-red detail on a pale blush ground.

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.
