About this fabric

The pattern combines rounded honeysuckle-like blooms, tulip forms and fine leafy stems in cool, silvery grey, with warmer pale floral details providing gentle depth against the light ground. At 370gsm, this is a substantial embroidered fabric with enough body for both upholstery and drapery applications. The design has a 57cm vertical repeat and a 64.7cm horizontal repeat, creating a clearly measured but quietly integrated floral rhythm. Its useable width is 129.5cm, with a standard length of 25m.

How to use it

Pair this lightish grey colourway with chalky whites, soft stone and pale blue-grey in a calm sitting room, or use it on a statement chair where the embroidery can be seen close up. Its restrained contrast also suits full-length curtains that need pattern without a strong visual block.

Use this softly cool grey floral embroidery to bring delicate pattern to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

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.
