About this fabric

The detailed design brings together pomegranate-like blooms, tulip forms, leaves and small scattered flowers in wine red, indigo, pale blue, ochre and coral. Against the cream ground, the wine accents read warm and deep, while the indigo provides a cooler line through the winding stems and gives the pattern definition. At 416gsm, this is a substantial textile suited to upholstery, with a usable width of 129.5cm. The pattern repeats every 75.5cm vertically and 64cm horizontally, making the repeat important when placing the larger floral motifs.

How to use it

Use the cream, wine and indigo palette on a reading chair, upholstered bench or headboard, pairing it with warm wood and plain textiles in cream, muted blue or deep wine. The ochre and coral details can be picked out in cushions or painted furniture for a layered, collected look.

Use this richly detailed wine and indigo embroidery to bring heritage colour and pattern to an upholstered chair, headboard or occasional piece.

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.
