About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric from the Glasshouse Fabrics collection has a usable width of 129 cm and a substantial 340 gsm weight, giving it enough body for both upholstery and drapery projects. The surface is packed with embroidered-looking detail and a dense 121 threads per cm specification, which suits the crisp definition of the foliage, birds and hanging floral sprays visible in the design. In this Tropical Night colourway, the navy ground feels cool and shadowy, while turquoise, lime, orange and white accents create a vivid, high-contrast jungle effect. The large repeats of 58 cm vertically and 127 cm horizontally support the sweeping scale of the motif and the sense of movement across the cloth.

How to use it

Use this colourway where you want pattern to feel dramatic rather than playful: it works well on statement chairs, cushions or full-length curtains against timber, bronze or painted dark walls. The deep blue ground keeps the scheme grounded while the bright embroidery colours add a lively, collected feel.

Pair with warm woods or brass to balance the vivid tropical embroidery.

Rain Forest Embroidery Embroidery Tropical Night is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
