About this fabric

The warm antique-ochre ground gives this colourway a mellow, time-softened character rather than a bright yellow cast. Venetian-red paisley forms punctuate the surface, while cream flecks and blue-grey outlines pick out the scrolling motifs and keep the dense pattern legible. At 610gsm and 200 threads per cm, the fabric has a substantial woven presence suited to upholstery. Its 138.5cm usable width and 80cm vertical by 69cm horizontal repeat provide generous coverage while retaining the design's rhythmic arrangement.

How to use it

Use it on an occasional chair, ottoman or compact sofa where the ochre ground can warm a room and the Venetian-red motifs can act as the principal accent. Balance the pattern with aged wood, antique brass and quiet cream upholstery or walls.

A substantial, richly patterned weave for statement upholstery, with warm ochre depth and Venetian-red paisley accents.

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.
