About this fabric
The colour reads as a cool, dusky purple, with subtle violet variation visible across the dense surface. Small looped and nubbled details create an uneven texture rather than a printed motif, so the swatch has quiet visual movement at close range. The dark tone absorbs much of the light while the raised fibres catch occasional highlights, adding depth without becoming shiny. No performance or composition specifications were supplied for this colourway.
How to use it
Use 21 Iris on a statement armchair, headboard or compact sofa where its dark violet tone can create a cocooning focal point. Balance the dense texture with pale timber, soft stone or brushed metal for contrast.
Use this deep, shadowy iris purple to give upholstered seating a richly tactile, cocooning finish.

Pairs well with
21 Iris 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.
