About this fabric

This heavy 629 gsm fabric is suited to upholstery, with a 141 cm usable width for covering substantial pieces. Fine cream willow stems and leaves repeat closely across the warm yellow ground, creating a light botanical effect with plenty of visual depth. The pattern measures 46.5 cm vertically and 23.5 cm horizontally, while the closely made weave has 56.2 threads per centimetre. Its pale sunflower tone reads warm and softly muted rather than bright, allowing the cream foliage to catch the light without becoming stark.

How to use it

Use the warm sunflower colourway on a statement armchair, dining chairs or a traditional sofa, pairing it with oat, natural linen, warm ivory and honey-toned wood. Its small-scale cream foliage can also soften darker timber or painted furniture without overwhelming the room.

Use this warm sunflower-and-cream botanical weave to bring gentle pattern and depth to upholstered seating, headboards or occasional chairs.

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.
