About this fabric

This Warwick fabric has a plain, fine woven surface rather than a printed motif, with a restrained slubby texture visible across the cloth. The dark plum colour reads warm and atmospheric in the deeper folds, while raised areas catch the light as muted purple. The softly folding construction suggests a versatile mid-weight cloth suitable for both upholstery and drapery. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this deep plum colourway to add depth to a reading chair, headboard or full-length curtains, especially alongside smoky neutrals, aged timber and brushed metal. Its softly shifting purple tone works particularly well where changing light can reveal the texture in the folds.

The deep plum tone brings a rich, composed note to upholstery, curtains and softly tailored furnishings.

Pairs well with

Slubby Linen Imperial 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.
