About this fabric

The ground is a muted greige-beige with a lightly irregular linen-like surface, while the white foliage catches the light more brightly across the face. Small branching stems and pointed leaves repeat closely, creating a delicate botanical texture rather than a bold ornamental scale. At 340 gsm and 31 threads per centimetre, the cloth has a substantial woven presence suited to upholstery. The 47 cm vertical repeat and 26.3 cm horizontal repeat give the leafy pattern a consistent rhythm across its 131.5 cm usable width.

How to use it

Use this warm, chalky greige on an occasional chair, headboard or relaxed sofa where the white embroidery can soften darker timber and bring gentle brightness to the room. Pair it with oatmeal, stone and warm white rather than sharp cool greys.

Use this softly contrasted greige ground to lighten upholstered seating while keeping the leafy embroidery quietly visible.

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.
