About this fabric

The ornate botanical design is built from curling stems, pointed leaves and repeated floral rosettes, with the charcoal ground giving the mustard and ivory motifs a subdued, antique warmth. At 425 gsm, this is a substantial fabric suited to upholstery, while its 67 threads per cm contribute to the closely detailed woven appearance visible here. The pattern repeats every 50 cm vertically and 46 cm horizontally, creating a consistent all-over arrangement for upholstered furniture. It has a usable width of 137 cm and a standard length of 60 m.

How to use it

Use this charcoal-led colourway on a statement armchair, dining chair or compact sofa where its muted mustard foliage can warm dark timber and aged brass. Keep surrounding textiles quieter in charcoal, oatmeal or soft ivory so the detailed botanical repeat remains the focus.

Use this richly patterned charcoal and mustard ground to bring depth to tailored upholstery and occasional chairs.

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