About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric has a usable width of 137 cm and a substantial 250 gsm weight, making it a practical choice for both drapery and upholstery. The large floral repeat measures 71 cm vertically and 46 cm horizontally, so the pattern reads as bold and clearly scaled across a room. In this colourway, the pale linen background keeps the red and claret petals feeling airy rather than heavy, while the darker flower centres add crisp detail and depth. The woven face appears smooth and tightly worked, with enough body to hold a tailored finish.

How to use it

Pair this claret-and-linen floral with painted wood, pale oak and plain neutral linens to let the blooms stand out. It works especially well in rooms that need warmth and pattern without losing a light, lifted feel.

Use for statement curtains, cushions or occasional upholstery where the painterly floral can take centre stage.

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.
