Zion 61 Thistle is a quiet mauve-purple plain fabric with a softly textured surface. Its dusty, slightly pink cast gives the swatch a gentle depth rather than a bright or saturated finish.

About this fabric

The swatch shows an even thistle tone, balanced between muted purple and dusky rose. A fine, subtle weave adds a soft grain across the otherwise unpatterned surface, while the matte finish keeps the colour understated. This is a plain fabric suitable for upholstery or drapery based on its visible textile construction. No performance features are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use 61 Thistle to add a subdued mauve accent to an upholstered chair, headboard or pair of curtains. It pairs particularly well with warm ivory, soft grey and aged wood, which allow its dusty purple tone to remain calm and refined.

A calm, softly textured thistle shade that brings muted colour without visual pattern.

Pairs well with

61 Thistle 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.
