Chestnut Tree Grey Blue/Sage

Chestnut Tree Grey Blue/Sage shows a climbing botanical trail of pale blossom and veined leaves across a soft, misty ground. The palette keeps the design light and airy, with the blue-grey foliage gently lifted by sage and blush accents.

About this fabric

This Sanderson Arboretum Fabrics cloth is a substantial 300 gsm fabric with a usable width of 140 cm, making it a versatile choice for both drapery and upholstery projects. The pattern repeat is a full 74 cm vertically and 140 cm horizontally, so the branching stems and leaf clusters read as an expansive, scenic repeat rather than a small all-over motif. In this colourway, the background sits in a cool grey with a faint green cast, while the leaves pick up muted slate-blue, sage and soft straw tones. The blossom clusters are picked out in creamy off-white, giving the whole design a quietly weathered, garden-walk feel rather than a bright floral look.

How to use it

Use it in a room with oak, limestone or painted woodwork to let the cool grey-blue foliage stay soft and elegant. It works especially well on curtains, occasional upholstery or a feature armchair where the large-scale branching pattern can be fully appreciated.

Pair with warm timber and muted linen for a calm, layered interior.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Chestnut Tree Grey Blue/Sage 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.
