Cadence Lilac

Cadence Fabric

Cadence Lilac is a soft, muted lilac with a dusty, low-key finish and a calm, even surface. The plain weave gives the colour a smooth, tailored look rather than a glossy or showy one.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as a gentle mauve-lilac with a greyed undertone, so it feels quieter and more mature than a bright pastel. The fabric has a fine, closely woven texture that softens the surface and keeps the shade looking matte and refined. It is made from 100% FR Polyester and is supplied 300 cm wide, making it especially practical for wide curtains and generous drops. With no pattern repeat and no Martindale rating noted, it is presented as a plain curtaining fabric rather than an upholstery cloth.

How to use it

Use Cadence Lilac where you want a softened wash of colour against pale timber, chalky walls or brushed metals. Its muted tone works well for relaxed bedroom curtains, elegant sheers-layering or a calm sitting room scheme.

A soft lilac tone that brings quiet colour and an easy, tailored finish to curtains.

Pairs well with

Cadence Lilac 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.
