Oak Forest/Cream presents a dense all-over pattern of softly defined oak leaves and branching stems in muted sage green against a warm cream ground. The restrained contrast gives the colourway a quiet, gently layered appearance.

About this fabric

The closely spaced oak foliage creates a continuous botanical surface, with pale cream showing between the sage leaves and fine branch lines. Its 252 gsm weight and 38 threads per cm give this textile a substantial mid-weight specification suited to both upholstery and drapery. The design has a 60 cm vertical repeat and a 138 cm horizontal repeat, allowing the branching pattern to run broadly across the 138 cm usable width. The softened sage tone reads calm and slightly earthy rather than bright, while the cream ground keeps the detailed pattern light.

How to use it

Pair this colourway with warm timber, natural linen and softly aged neutrals to draw out its earthy oak-green character. It would bring gentle botanical detail to a relaxed chair, roman blind or full-length curtain without overpowering a pale room.

Use this muted sage-and-cream botanical for relaxed upholstery, curtains or coordinating soft furnishings.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Oak Forest/Cream 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.
