Elysian Geese Silver/Chalk

Arboretum Fabrics FabricSAF0255-01

Elysian Geese Silver/Chalk is a light, open design with flying geese spaced across a clean chalk ground. The birds read softly drawn rather than graphic, with silver-grey wings and a pale body that keeps the overall effect airy.

About this fabric

This fabric from the Arboretum Fabrics collection by Sanderson has a usable width of 141 cm, a standard length of 60 m, and a substantial 235 gsm weight. The pattern repeat is 91 cm vertically and 141 cm horizontally, giving the design a broad, sweeping rhythm across the cloth. In this colourway, the background is a warm chalk white and the geese are rendered in muted silver and slate-grey tones, with just enough beige in the bodies to soften the cooler wing shading. The visible texture appears smooth and finely woven, which suits the crisp definition of the birds and keeps the motif feeling refined rather than rustic.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a streamlined armchair, bench cushion or upholstered headboard where the pale ground can lift a room without feeling stark. It also works well against painted timber and darker joinery, letting the grey wings stand out gently.

A crisp, airy statement for relaxed schemes that need a tailored decorative touch.

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.
