Suzani Archive Weave Zinc

Antiquary FabricZOF0163-01

Suzani Archive Weave Zinc combines a cool zinc-grey ground with layered paisleys in chalky ivory, soft taupe and muted ochre. The dense woven surface gives the pattern a softly textured, archival feel rather than a flat printed appearance.

About this fabric

The design is built from repeating paisley forms, outlined and separated by warm ochre lines, with small pale botanical marks filling the zinc-grey ground. Its restrained palette reads cool overall, while the ochre and creamy highlights bring a gentle antique warmth to the surface. At 610 gsm and 200 threads per cm, this is a substantial, closely woven textile suited to upholstery applications. It has a useable width of 138.5 cm, a standard length of 30 m, and a pattern repeat measuring 80 cm vertically by 69 cm horizontally.

How to use it

Use this cool zinc colourway on a statement armchair, footstool or sofa where its medium-scale paisleys can be seen clearly. Pair it with chalky neutrals and aged wood, or draw out the muted ochre tracery with warm tan and antique brass accents.

The cool zinc ground gives the ornate paisley weave a muted, quietly tailored character, with warm ochre accents adding definition.

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.
