About this fabric
The design features softly outlined opal flowers, curling leaves and small yellow-green buds set against dense midnight and blue-green foliage. Its 34.5 cm vertical repeat and 46 cm horizontal repeat create a clearly repeating, medium-scale floral across the cloth. At 230 gsm and 36.2 threads per cm, the fabric has a substantial woven presence while remaining versatile for upholstery and drapery. The 140 cm usable width provides a generous working surface for both made-to-measure curtains and furnishing projects.
How to use it
Use Midnight/Opal to bring cool, inky depth to a bedroom curtain, occasional chair or bench, pairing it with chalky whites, blue-green paint and aged timber. The opal flowers soften the darker ground without losing the pattern’s richly layered character.
A cool, detailed Morris floral that brings layered midnight blue depth with softly contrasting opal blooms.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Pimpernel Midnight/Opal 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.
