Lionel Zest brings a vivid chartreuse ground to a repeating procession of stylised cats, from upright and prowling figures to reclining shapes. The pale, stippled animal forms stand out crisply against the energetic green background.

About this fabric

The colourway is unapologetically bright: a yellow-leaning chartreuse green gives the design a fresh, lively presence, while the white and soft grey feline motifs add definition without dulling its energy. Each animal is picked out with a fine dotted texture, giving the repeated silhouettes more visual depth than a flat block print. At 220gsm with 44 threads per centimetre, this is a versatile mid-weight fabric suited to both upholstery and drapery. The design has a 42.5cm vertical repeat and 92.8cm horizontal repeat across its 140.2cm usable width.

How to use it

Pair the zest-green ground with warm white, natural timber and soft grey upholstery to let the feline pattern remain the focal point. Used on a statement chair, blind or playful pair of curtains, it brings a distinctly upbeat accent rather than a subdued botanical mood.

Use this lively chartreuse animal print to bring playful colour to occasional upholstery, cushions or relaxed curtains.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Lionel Zest without fighting it. 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.
