About this fabric

The muted mauve shade has a gentle pink-taupe cast, giving the fabric a quiet, softened appearance rather than a bright or saturated colour. Fine horizontal and vertical threads create a lightly irregular woven texture, with small shifts in tone where the surface catches the light. The understated surface makes the colour the main feature while retaining enough texture to avoid looking flat. No further specification data is supplied for this exact fabric, so composition, width and performance should be confirmed separately.

How to use it

Use this dusty mauve as a calm upholstery or curtain colour in rooms with warm neutrals, pale timber and softly contrasting taupes. Its restrained tone also works well as a textural layer alongside deeper plum or muted rose accents.

A softly muted mauve weave that brings gentle colour and quiet texture to upholstery or drapery.

Sulis Lilium is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
