Honeysuckle Sage/Clay

Outdoor Performance OutdoorMOF0170-01

Honeysuckle Sage/Clay brings a cool, pale sage ground alive with fine leafy stems and softly muted clay honeysuckle blooms. The dense botanical arrangement reads delicate rather than dramatic, with warm flower tones gently punctuating the cool foliage.

About this fabric

This Outdoor Performance fabric is 139 cm wide and weighs 217 gsm, giving the cloth a versatile mid-weight presence for upholstery or drapery. Its 45 cm vertical and 46 cm horizontal repeat creates a closely spaced field of slender sage leaves, branching stems and rounded, honeysuckle-like flowers. The sage is washed and airy, while the clay accents add a subdued earthy warmth without overpowering the light background. A specification of 38.5 threads per cm supports the closely detailed surface shown in the swatch.

How to use it

Pair this pale sage and clay colourway with chalky neutrals, natural timber and warm stone for a calm room with gentle botanical definition. It works particularly well on occasional upholstery, cushions or softly coordinated outdoor seating.

Use this softly balanced sage-and-clay botanical for relaxed upholstery, cushions or light outdoor curtains.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Honeysuckle Sage/Clay 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.
