About this fabric

This Sanderson Curios Weaves fabric is woven with a substantial 632 gsm weight and a very high thread count of 122 threads per cm, which gives the surface its firm, finely detailed feel. The design repeats at 4 cm vertically and 4.5 cm horizontally, creating a compact pattern that stays sharp and orderly across the cloth. In this colourway, the teal sits on the cooler side of the spectrum, softened by the light background so it feels lagoon-like rather than bright or tropical. The texture visible in the swatch has a tactile, slightly slubby woven quality that suits furniture needing both visual interest and durability. With a usable width of 142 cm, it is well placed for tailored upholstery projects and coordinated cushions.

How to use it

Pair Akan Lagoon with pale oak, chalky neutrals and brushed metal for a clean, contemporary scheme. Its cool teal tone also works well with crisp white or deeper blue accents where you want pattern without heaviness.

Use on an accent chair or cushion for a crisp, tailored pop of teal.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Akan Lagoon 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.
