Cranes purple

Kyotogardens Fabriccranes/fa1/tou

Painterly cranes are set against a pale ground, with inky black outlines and washes of plum, berry and soft grey giving the design a calm, artful feel. The repeat reads spacious and decorative rather than busy, so the motifs can breathe across the cloth.

About this fabric

This colourway of Cranes Purple pairs a light, chalky background with expressive bird forms in deep charcoal, smoky mauve and muted wine tones. The 82% viscose and 18% linen composition gives the fabric a smooth, softly woven character that suits its fluid painted look, while the 133cm usable width makes it practical for made-to-measure window treatments. It is specified for curtains, blinds and soft furnishings, with a 66.5cm horizontal repeat and 53cm vertical repeat to consider when pattern matching. Dry clean only care and iron safe finishing make it a refined decorative textile rather than a hard-wearing upholstery cloth.

How to use it

Use it for drapery where the plum accents can stand out against plaster, stone or pale wood. It works especially well in rooms with muted greys, dusty pinks or deep green accessories to echo the watercolour palette.

Use for elegant curtains or blinds where the painterly crane motif can lead the room.

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.
