Woodland Chorus Indigo/Linen

Woodland Chorus Indigo/Linen sets delicate birds and branching botanicals across a softly textured linen ground. The indigo-blue pattern reads clean and classic, with enough contrast to keep the design lively.

About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric from the Arboretum Fabrics collection is a 300gsm textile with a usable width of 139cm, a 50m standard length, and a 49 threads per cm construction. The pattern repeat measures 63cm vertically and 91cm horizontally, giving the intertwined branches and perched birds a generous, scenic spread. In this colourway, the print sits in a clear indigo blue that feels cool and slightly inky against the natural linen background, while the cloth itself shows a firm, substantial handle. The result is a tailored botanical with enough body for upholstery as well as curtains, blinds, or soft furnishings.

How to use it

Use this indigo-and-linen palette to bring structure to a relaxed country room, pairing it with painted wood, pale oak, and simple natural textures. It also works well as a statement chair or roman blind where the large-scale branch pattern can breathe.

A crisp indigo-on-linen botanical that feels fresh and tailored rather than fussy.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Woodland Chorus Indigo/Linen 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.
