Aurora Linen - Damson

Aurora Linen - Damson has a quiet, atmospheric appearance, with muted damson and mauve tones softened by hazy vertical movement. Subtle taupe, grey-green and plum streaks run through the surface like lightly brushed colour.

About this fabric

The fabric shown has a fine-looking, softly irregular vertical texture rather than a defined geometric motif, giving the colourway a gently weathered depth. Its damson base reads as a dusky mauve-purple, while pale taupe, cool grey-green and deeper plum lines add variation without becoming high-contrast. The surface appears softly matt, with the tonal striations creating a relaxed, painterly effect. No composition, width or performance specification is supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this muted damson colourway for full-length curtains in a calm bedroom, sitting room or reading space, pairing it with warm taupe upholstery, aged timber and brushed metal. Its grey-green and plum undertones also sit comfortably alongside softened sage or dusky rose accents.

A softly atmospheric damson ground with vertical tonal movement, well suited to relaxed curtains and blinds.

Pairs well with

Aurora Linen - Damson 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.
