About this fabric

The shade reads as a dark forest teal, cooler than a conventional green and softened by a muted, almost charcoal undertone. A fine vertical weave gives the surface gentle tonal variation rather than a visible printed motif. The cloth appears evenly woven with a softly matte finish, while the close texture catches the light in restrained bands. Its versatile mid-weight appearance makes it suitable for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Pair Town Foresta with warm timber, aged brass and softly coloured neutrals to balance its cool depth. On a chair or full-length curtain, the dark teal tone creates a composed focal point without introducing a strong pattern.

Use this deep forest teal to bring quiet depth to tailored upholstery, curtains or blinds.

Pairs well with

Town Foresta is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
