About this fabric

Across the butter-yellow ground, repeated ornamental baskets of flowers sit among twisting branches, olive leaves and blue-grey birds. The cooler slate and powder-blue details temper the warm base, while cream blooms and small coral-pink centres bring extra softness and depth. Woven in 100% linen at approximately 137cm wide, this fabric is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery. Its General Domestic upholstery grade and dry-clean after-care make it suitable for considered everyday schemes where the detailed botanical pattern can remain the focus.

How to use it

Use this warm yellow colourway to brighten a reading room, breakfast area or relaxed sitting room, with chalky blue upholstery accents and olive-toned painted furniture. As curtains, it will give a pale room a cheerful garden-like backdrop; on fixed upholstery, keep surrounding textiles quieter to show off the large repeat.

Pair the sunny yellow ground with chalky blues, olive greens and warm natural woods for a characterful botanical scheme.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside The Royal Garden Sorbet 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.
