About this fabric
The dark chocolate background gives this colourway a warm, grounded depth, while slate-blue leaves and stems introduce a cooler contrast. Cream flowers, olive foliage and dusty pink birds soften the near-black effect without diminishing the pattern’s formal character. At 286 gsm, the fabric has a substantial mid-weight presence suitable for both upholstery and drapery. Its 139 cm usable width carries a 53 cm vertical repeat and 46 cm horizontal repeat, allowing the symmetrical bird-and-flower arrangement to read clearly when positioned.
How to use it
Use it on a statement armchair, headboard or full-length curtains where the chocolate ground can anchor a room; balance the cool slate accents with warm timber, aged brass and quiet neutral upholstery.
The deep chocolate ground and cool slate foliage bring historic pattern depth to upholstery, curtains and accent cushions.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Strawberry Thief Chocolate/Slate 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.
