About this fabric

Printed on 100% linen, Rubia Sage features rounded, scalloped floral heads, curling botanical shapes and small dotted details in muted sage, aqua, cream and ochre. The low-contrast green tones keep the pattern gentle, while the ochre outlines prevent the colourway from feeling flat or overly cool. At approximately 137cm wide, it is suitable for curtains and general domestic fixed upholstery. Allow 3% shrinkage; care is by delicate wash at 30°C or dry cleaning, and it should not be tumble dried.

How to use it

Use Rubia Sage for relaxed curtains or a fixed upholstered chair where its cool green ground can sit alongside chalky neutrals. Bring out the warmer ochre detailing with aged brass, honey-toned timber or restrained terracotta accents.

Pair the cool sage and aqua ground with warm ivory, natural wood and small ochre accents for a softly layered scheme.

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