About this fabric

The colour reads as muted wheat beige with gentle taupe depth, while the small floral pattern appears in lighter and darker threads rather than a sharp contrasting print. At 464 gsm, this substantial woven fabric is particularly suited to upholstery. Its vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are both 11.5 cm, creating a fine all-over rhythm across the 140 cm usable width. The close construction of 57.9 threads per cm gives the surface a compact, detailed appearance, and each standard length is 35 m.

How to use it

Pair this warm wheat colourway with natural oak, aged brass and softly contrasting ivory upholstery for a calm room with quietly historic character. Its small-scale pattern is especially effective on armchairs, dining seats and footstools.

Use this softly patterned wheat weave to bring warm, tonal detail to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Bellflowers Weave Wheat 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.
