About this fabric

The pale sage background gives this colourway a cool, softened base, while the cream blooms keep the overall impression light. Russet and muted berry-red flowers provide the darker accents, creating depth without making the pattern feel harsh or saturated. Specified for Outdoor performance, the fabric weighs 217 gsm and has 38.5 threads per cm. Its 52 cm vertical repeat and 27.5 cm horizontal repeat create a compact, regularly spaced floral layout across the 138.5 cm usable width.

How to use it

Use Chrysanthemum Russet on outdoor cushions, relaxed seating or drapery where its sage ground can sit alongside weathered timber, natural linen and warm russet accessories. The cream flowers help balance the deeper blooms in rooms that need pattern without a bright, high-contrast finish.

Use the muted sage ground and russet blooms to bring a softly timeworn botanical character to indoor or outdoor furnishings.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Chrysanthemum Russet 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.
