About this fabric

The warm saffron ground gives this colourway a deep golden-yellow presence rather than a pale or lemon yellow character. Finely drawn cream and olive foliage curls around coral-red flower heads, while plum-brown and charcoal details sharpen the ornate botanical arrangement. At 425 gsm, it is a substantial fabric suited to upholstered seating, with a 140 cm usable width. Its 60 cm vertical repeat and 69 cm horizontal repeat allow the interlocking motifs to be planned precisely across a chair, headboard or sofa.

How to use it

Use this colourway to bring a warm, jewel-like focal point to a room: the saffron ground pairs naturally with timber and neutral upholstery, while the coral, cream and plum details can be echoed in cushions or painted accents.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Seasons By May Saffron 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.
