About this fabric

Woven in 95% cotton and 5% linen, this 230gsm fabric has enough body for curtains and blinds while still reading softly and naturally in the hand. The visible design pairs dusky purple blooms with cool green leaves on an ivory ground, creating a gentle, slightly washed effect rather than a vivid or heavily saturated one. Its half drop pattern repeat and 27.3cm horizontal by 53.3cm vertical repeat make the trail feel balanced and rhythmical across larger window drops. Dry clean only and iron safe, it is well suited to soft furnishings where the relaxed floral palette can be appreciated.

How to use it

Use this colourway in a bedroom or sitting room with chalky neutrals, pale timber and sage accents to bring out the fabric’s cool lilac notes. It works especially well on curtains or Roman blinds where the medium-scale floral repeat can be seen clearly.

Pair with pale linen and muted sage for a fresh, romantic scheme.

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.
