About this fabric

The design is filled with slender willow-like stems and pointed leaves, with the slate-blue print varying subtly in density across the cream background. Its 45.5 cm vertical pattern repeat creates a continuous scrolling botanical effect, while the horizontal repeat is listed as 0 cm. Supplied at 52 cm usable width and a standard 10.05 m length, it is a practical format for planning repeated wall coverage. The 177 gsm specification accompanies this colourway.

How to use it

Use Willow Slate to bring a cool botanical note into a bedroom, study or country sitting room, pairing the slate-blue leaves with chalky creams, pale timber and soft grey-blue accents. Its warm cream ground also works well with natural woven textures and understated painted furniture.

A cool, muted botanical design that brings leafy movement to a cream-based scheme.

Pairs well with

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