Rose and Thistle Indigo

Rose and Thistle Indigo sets finely drawn pale roses, thistles and curling foliage against a deep, cool indigo ground. The strong blue-and-ivory contrast gives the dense floral repeat a crisp, moonlit character.

About this fabric

This 188 gsm fabric has a close, even surface that suits both upholstery and drapery, offering a versatile mid-weight for considered interiors. Its 62.3 cm vertical repeat and 23.5 cm horizontal repeat arrange the scrolling foliage and rounded flower heads in a richly continuous pattern. Against the saturated indigo background, the ivory and silvery-blue details appear light and finely etched rather than warm or creamy. With a usable width of 137 cm and 36.2 threads per cm, it provides a substantial, detailed textile for projects where the pattern is intended to make a clear visual statement.

How to use it

Use Rose and Thistle Indigo on a reading chair, headboard or full-length curtains where its cool indigo depth can anchor pale timber, chalky walls and soft ivory upholstery. Repeat the blue through piping or cushions while keeping surrounding surfaces quiet enough for the floral detail to remain legible.

The cool indigo ground and pale floral detail bring a richly patterned, heritage feel 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.
