About this fabric

This colourway combines fine dark detailing with muted lilac and lavender accents, so the pattern reads crisp without feeling heavy. The pale background keeps the large teardrop shapes bright and airy, while the intricate leaf-like edging gives the surface a tailored, embroidered look. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so it is best selected for projects where the visual pattern is the focus. Its mid-weight appearance suggests a textile that can sit comfortably across both upholstery and drapery uses.

How to use it

Use Josephine 05 on an accent chair, headboard or cushions where the soft mauve notes can lift a neutral scheme. It also works well in a smart sitting room with warm wood, pale plaster and deeper plum accessories.

Pair with quiet neutrals to let the paisley motif and mauve accents stand out.

Josephine 05 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.
