About this fabric

The design is made up of small, curling leafy sprigs in russet, muted pink and pale green, set against a light cream background. Its warm, gently aged colour balance gives the pattern more depth than a plain beige, while retaining a light overall impression. At 230 gsm, the fabric has a versatile mid-weight suited to both upholstery and drapery applications. The pattern measures 23 cm vertically by 13.5 cm horizontally, giving the repeated foliage a refined, close-set rhythm across the 137 cm usable width.

How to use it

Use this warm cream-and-russet colourway on a chair, lampshade or relaxed curtain scheme where its small botanical scale can sit comfortably alongside natural wood and softly aged neutrals. The russet foliage also works as a quiet accent against deeper brown, olive or terracotta furnishings.

A versatile mid-weight botanical with a warm cream ground and finely drawn russet foliage.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Willow Bough Minor Russet 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.
