Ritournelle - Soleil
Festivités Fabric4291-01
Ritournelle - Soleil is a softly vintage floral woven in a warm ivory shade, with bouquets and scattered sprigs picked out in ochre, rust, sage and dusty blue. The pale ground keeps the pattern light, while the clustered flowers give it a richly composed finish.

About this fabric
The design features rounded floral bouquets, small sprigs and leafy stems arranged across a fine, visibly textured ground. Ochre and burnt-rust blooms bring warmth to the Soleil colourway, while sage foliage and occasional dusty blue flowers add a cooler, weathered contrast. The weave has a subtle vertical grain that gives the ivory background depth rather than a flat printed appearance. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied, and no performance features are noted for this fabric.
How to use it
Use Soleil on a pair of occasional chairs, a bench or relaxed curtains where its warm ivory base can sit alongside painted timber and aged finishes. Echo the ochre and sage in cushions or trim, keeping larger surrounding pieces quiet so the varied floral bouquets remain distinct.
Pair the warm ivory ground with natural timber, muted sage and aged brass for a softly traditional scheme.

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