About this fabric

The fine weave gives this colourway a quietly tactile, natural-looking finish, with tiny tonal variations preventing the lime shade from appearing flat. Its soft green cast is delicate and muted, balanced by pale neutral threads that make the overall impression airy rather than strongly saturated. The catalogue records no performance features and supplies no further specification data for this exact fabric, so suitability should be confirmed against the intended upholstery or drapery application.

How to use it

Use 16 Lime Sorbet to brighten a neutral room without introducing a vivid accent; its pale yellow-green tone works particularly well with chalky whites, warm stone, light timber and soft grey upholstery. The subtle weave also allows it to sit quietly across larger upholstered or curtained surfaces.

Its pale, softly flecked lime tone brings a fresh, understated lift to seating, cushions or curtains.

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.
