About this fabric

At 286gsm, this Morris & Co. fabric has a substantial mid-weight handle suited to both upholstery and drapery applications. The flowing leaf and tendril design has a 39.5cm vertical repeat and 92cm horizontal repeat, creating a closely connected botanical field across the cloth. Its 138.5cm usable width is practical for curtains and larger upholstery panels. Fine surface texture, recorded at 39.3 threads per cm, gently breaks up the cool paradise blue and lets the pale and green details catch the light.

How to use it

Use the cool blue ground with chalky walls, pale timber and soft grey upholstery for a fresh, collected scheme. The olive-green details can be picked out in piping, cushions or painted furniture to give the pattern a grounded finish.

Use this cool blue colourway to bring layered botanical pattern to curtains, cushions, occasional upholstery or a statement chair.

Pairs well with

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