About this fabric

This colourway pairs soft gold foliage, deep red leaf forms and olive-green accents on a pale cream ground, giving the pattern a warm, autumnal feel. The woven surface appears substantial and tailored, which suits the supplied 380 gsm weight and makes it a strong candidate for upholstery. With a usable width of 137 cm and a large 63 cm vertical repeat, the design has the scale needed to show its full floral rhythm across larger pieces. The 55 threads per cm specification also supports the dense, detailed look visible in the swatch, where the motif feels crisp rather than loose or airy.

How to use it

It works well on a classic armchair, ottoman or occasional sofa where the red-and-gold palette can become the room’s focal point. Pair it with aged wood, brass and quiet neutrals to let the warm cream ground keep the pattern from feeling too heavy.

Use on a statement chair or curtains to let the warm botanical palette 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.
