Whinfell Saffron/Mineral

About this fabric

The pattern combines ochre-saffron flower heads with blue-grey leaves and slender charcoal-style stems, creating a detailed but gently weathered colourway rather than a bright, high-contrast floral. Its 224gsm weight makes it a versatile mid-weight for upholstery or drapery. The fabric has a usable width of 137cm and a standard length of 40m. Pattern planning should allow for the 32cm vertical repeat and the 68.5cm horizontal repeat, which carry the botanical arrangement across the cloth.

How to use it

Use the mineral background to lighten a window seat, occasional chair or full-length curtain, then pick up the saffron flowers with warm wood, ochre accents or aged brass. Blue-grey upholstery and soft neutral walls will reinforce the colourway’s calm, slightly cool character.

The mineral ground and softly muted saffron and blue-grey foliage suit relaxed upholstery, curtains and layered country-contemporary schemes.

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.
