Little Chintz Indigo/Carmine

Archive IV The Collector Fabrics FabricMOF0082-02

Little Chintz Indigo/Carmine layers densely repeated floral sprigs and rounded carmine blooms across a cool indigo, cream and green ground. The close pattern reads richly detailed at the scale of the swatch, with the red accents adding warmth to the blue-led colourway.

About this fabric

This 300 gsm fabric has a 139 cm usable width, giving the finely patterned cloth a versatile mid-weight presence for upholstery or drapery. Its 37 cm vertical and 35 cm horizontal repeats form neat rows of blue leafy sprays, small cream flowers and rounded carmine-red floral motifs. Green details soften the contrast between the deep indigo and warm red, while the woven surface gives the dense design a subtle tactile grain. With 49 threads per centimetre, the ground looks closely constructed and even beneath the intricate chintz pattern.

How to use it

Pair the cool indigo ground with natural timber, chalky cream walls and warm red or russet accents to echo the carmine motifs. The compact repeat is especially effective on an occasional chair, dining seat or full-length curtain where its orderly rows remain visible.

Use this cool indigo ground with warm carmine accents to bring detailed colour and period character to upholstery or curtains.

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.
