About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric is supplied as a textile with a usable width of 138 cm and a substantial 425 gsm weight, which gives the cloth a reassuringly full handle. The large-scale repeat, measuring 89 cm vertically and 138 cm horizontally, suits a bold scenic layout like this bird-and-blossom design. In this colourway, the background reads as warm sand rather than a stark cream, so the russet blooms, olive leaves and softly coloured birds feel especially settled and heritage-led. The woven surface shown in the image has a crisp, detailed appearance that supports tailored upholstery on statement pieces.

How to use it

Use this colourway to add warmth to a period armchair, ottoman or banquette, where the sand ground can calm the room while the russet florals bring depth. It also layers well with aged wood, muted green paint and other quiet natural textures.

The warm sand ground and russet detailing give this classic bird-and-flower design an elegant, country-house feel.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Abbeville Russet/Sand 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.
