Melford Alpine

Melford Weaves FabricSAF0338-24

Melford Alpine shows a quiet, cool green with a lightly heathered look and a fine chevron weave that reads crisp and understated. The surface has a softly textured, linen-like finish that keeps the colour feeling fresh rather than flat.

About this fabric

This colourway combines a muted alpine green ground with paler threads that lift the weave and give the surface a subtly striated, tailored appearance. At 270gsm, it has enough substance for upholstery, while the 138.5cm usable width also makes it practical for drapery and soft furnishing projects. The pattern has a 1.6cm horizontal repeat and no vertical repeat, so the small-scale chevron effect stays neat and disciplined across larger pieces. With 88 threads per cm, the cloth looks tightly woven and refined, with a dry, tactile finish that suits a smart, relaxed interior.

How to use it

Use it on an occasional chair, bench, or roman blind where the cool green tone can sit alongside oak, limestone, or painted timber. It pairs especially well with chalk whites, smoky blues, and muted botanical accents.

A calm, fresh green that works beautifully on tailored seating or soft window treatments.

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