About this fabric

The dark ground lets the terracotta forms read with gentle warmth rather than brightness, while muted olive leaves, peach flowers and small cream details add definition across the surface. Stylised flowers and curling foliage create a detailed, pictorial rhythm with plenty of visual depth. At 230 gsm, this is a versatile mid-weight fabric suitable for both upholstery and drapery, with a usable width of 137 cm. Its 53 cm vertical and 35 cm horizontal pattern repeat keeps the floral arrangement regular across the cloth.

How to use it

Use Compton Terracotta/Multi to give a reading chair, sofa or curtain scheme a warm autumnal accent, balancing the terracotta against the dark charcoal-brown ground and muted olive foliage.

Use the warm terracotta and olive palette to bring depth to sofas, occasional chairs, cushions or full-length curtains.

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.
