About this fabric

The pattern combines fine, taupe leaf-like foliage with larger ornamental motifs in pale blue and deep navy. Against the creamy background, the navy sections read as crisp, cool accents while the pale blue brings a softer, washed contrast. The woven surface has a tactile, slightly structured appearance, with the tonal foliage visible across the fabric rather than sitting as a flat print. Its substantial drape and patterned texture make this colourway suitable for either upholstery or drapery.

How to use it

Use Ashbee Oxford to bring layered blue detail into a warm neutral room, pairing the cream and taupe ground with natural timber or soft beige upholstery. Repeat the deep navy selectively in cushions, piping or painted furniture for definition.

Pair the warm cream and taupe ground with pale blue accents for a calm scheme, or use the navy motifs as a stronger contrast.

Pairs well with

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