About this fabric

The bottle-green ground reads deep and slightly muted, giving the colourway a shaded, collected character rather than a bright garden tone. Large stylised blooms, curling stems and outlined leaves are layered with warm parchment, terracotta and russet details, while occasional blue notes add a cooler glint. At 416 gsm, this is a substantial fabric with the visual density and handle suited to upholstery. It has a 129.5 cm usable width, with a 75.5 cm vertical repeat and 64 cm horizontal repeat to consider when centring the flowering motifs.

How to use it

Use this deep bottle-green colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or dining seat against warm timber, aged brass and quiet neutral walls. Its russet and parchment detailing also makes it easy to draw in terracotta accents without losing the grounded depth of the green.

A substantial botanical textile suited to upholstered seating, where its deep ground and detailed floral repeat can be fully appreciated.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Theodosia Embroidery Bottle Green 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.
