Oxford Verbena

Oxford Verbena has a muted dusty-mauve tone with a gentle taupe cast, giving the plain cloth a softly shaded appearance. Fine woven texture is visible across the surface, while the loose folds show its fluid handle.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as cool and subdued rather than bright, with the mauve tone deepening in the folds and softening across the flatter areas. Its close, even weave creates a discreet grain rather than a pronounced pattern, keeping the surface quietly tactile. The fabric is catalogued as Fabric, with no further composition, width or performance specification supplied. The balanced weight visible in the gathered cloth makes Oxford Verbena suitable to consider for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Use the dusty mauve-taupe shade to bring a calm, softly coloured finish to a reading chair, headboard or full-length curtains. Pair it with warm ivory, mushroom and aged timber to bring out its muted depth without making the room feel overly pink.

A softly textured dusty mauve weave with enough fluidity for curtains and a refined look for upholstery.

Pairs well with

Oxford Verbena 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.
