About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this 137cm-wide fabric is suitable for curtains and fixed upholstery in Contract and General Domestic settings. The large-scale repeat brings together coral-red blooms, pale pink flowers, cream sprays and deep sage foliage, all softened by the muted grey-blue background. Its cool ground gives the colourful bouquet a quieter, more atmospheric appearance than a warm or strongly saturated floral. Allow 3% shrinkage; after-care is Delicate Wash at 30°C or Dry Clean, and the fabric should not be tumble dried.

How to use it

Pair the blue-grey ground with chalky pinks, warm coral and aged sage in a traditional sitting room, using it for full curtains or a statement upholstered chair. Its muted depth also works well with natural wood and soft cream linens.

Use this cool blue-grey floral for relaxed traditional curtains or softly tailored upholstery with warm coral and sage accents.

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