Nelumbo grey

Woven in 53% linen and 47% cotton, this fabric has a natural cloth handle that suits curtains, blinds and soft furnishings, and it comes with a generous 136.5cm usable width. The 287gsm weight gives the cloth enough body for a graceful hang while still keeping the pattern readable across larger window drops. Its 45.5cm horizontal and 61cm vertical repeats are ideal for a design with broad, overlapping floral forms like these. In the swatch, the grey ground is lifted by restrained lilac shading and silvery outlines, so the print feels cool rather than heavy. Dry clean only; iron safe.

Pair this muted grey colourway with pale oak, smoked glass and soft taupe upholstery for a calm modern scheme. It also works well in rooms where you want a botanical statement that stays disciplined and understated rather than bright.
