About this fabric

The ocean-toned ground shifts subtly between blue and teal, giving the colourway a softly weathered depth rather than a flat, saturated finish. Slim dark outlines define the pale stone-beige vines, while the repeated leafy curves create a medium-scale vertical rhythm. At approximately 137cm wide, this fabric is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery and is graded Contract, General Domestic. Its composition is 88% Polyester, 8% Acrylic and 4% Viscose; care is listed as delicate wash at 30°C, dry clean or spongeable.

How to use it

Pair the cool ocean teal with chalky neutrals, pale timber and muted blue accents for a calm, collected room. On upholstery, let the pale scrolling vines remain the main decorative detail; on curtains, their vertical movement will add height without becoming overly formal.

Use the cool ocean-teal ground and pale scrolling vines to bring depth to curtains, occasional seating or tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

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