About this fabric

At 235 gsm, this mid-weight cloth has the substance to work across upholstery and drapery. Its 137 cm usable width and 60 m standard length provide a practical format for larger furnishing projects. The pattern repeats every 27 cm vertically and 31 cm horizontally, creating a continuous field of intertwined leaves, stems and blossoms. Against the vanilla ground, the artichoke and sage greens appear muted rather than bright, while the scattered pink flowers add a restrained warm accent.

How to use it

Use this Artichoke/Vanilla colourway on a reading chair, bench or tailored curtains where its soft vanilla background can lighten the scheme. Pair the muted greens with natural wood, warm neutrals and small touches of dusty pink to pick up the floral detail.

A detailed mid-weight floral for upholstered seating, cushions and curtains.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Golden Lily Minor Artichoke/Vanilla 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.
