About this fabric

The warm beige ground is crowded with branching trees, leafy sprays, small birds and stylised flowers; the mulberry and russet accents are softened by olive foliage and brown stems. At 260 gsm and 36.6 threads per cm, the fabric presents as a substantial, finely woven mid-weight suitable for both upholstery and drapery. The design spans a 79.5 cm vertical repeat and a 137 cm horizontal repeat across its 137 cm usable width, so the tree groupings read at a generous scale. Its standard length is 60 m, while the close regular weave appears softly matte in this colourway rather than highly lustrous.

How to use it

Use the warm beige ground as the room’s gentle neutral, then pick up the russet and mulberry berries in cushions, painted wood or accent upholstery. Olive foliage and brown branches make natural partners for timber, aged brass and other quiet earthy finishes.

Use the warm beige ground with russet, mulberry and olive accents for a softly traditional scheme.

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.
