Fruit Cream/Teal

Morris and Friends Volume II Fabrics FabricMOF0011-01

Fruit Cream/Teal pairs a warm cream ground with curling teal foliage, small blossoms and softly coloured fruit motifs. Its closely drawn pattern has a gentle, timeworn character, with coral-pink and ochre accents adding warmth against the cooler leaves.

About this fabric

The visible design is a dense botanical arrangement of leafy stems, flowers and rounded fruit forms, printed in muted teal, ochre, coral pink and brown over cream. A fine, even surface texture is visible across the 380 gsm cloth, giving the detailed pattern a tactile rather than flat appearance. The fabric has a 137 cm usable width and a substantial 25.2 threads per cm, while the pattern repeats vertically over 64 cm and horizontally over 68.5 cm. This balanced repeat makes the small-scale fruit and foliage read continuously across upholstered or draped surfaces.

How to use it

Use the cream-and-teal ground to bring softness to a window seat, occasional chair or full-length curtains, then pick up its ochre fruit and coral details in plain cushions or painted furniture. It works especially well with warm timber, aged brass and quiet neutral walls.

A softly detailed cream ground with teal foliage and warm fruit tones, suited to traditional and collected interiors.

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