About this fabric

The pattern is arranged in a structured trellis of oval floral medallions, framed by pale scrolling leaves and pointed botanical flourishes. Burnt orange gives the colourway its dominant warmth and depth, while chartreuse shoots and muted green details bring a lively contrast against the cream and brown linework. At 265 gsm with 35.6 threads per cm, this is a substantial mid-weight textile suited to both upholstery and drapery. The fabric has a 141 cm usable width, with a 65.5 cm vertical repeat and 47 cm horizontal repeat for careful pattern planning.

How to use it

Use this warm orange colourway on a traditional armchair, headboard or curtains where its formal medallions can be appreciated at scale. Pair it with aged wood, cream upholstery and restrained chartreuse or olive accessories to echo the foliage without competing with the pattern.

Use the warm burnt-orange ground to bring depth to traditional upholstery or full-length drapery, with chartreuse accents picking up green in the room.

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.
