About this fabric

The repeated paisleys are closely arranged across the ground, with curling teardrop forms and fine, intricate markings visible throughout the image. Its antique bronze tone reads warm and subdued, while the grey-olive tracery adds a cooler shadow that keeps the colourway quietly dimensional. At 450gsm and 139.5cm wide, this is a substantial fabric suited to upholstery. The pattern has a 30.5cm vertical repeat and a 34cm horizontal repeat, with 55.1 threads per cm contributing to its closely detailed appearance.

How to use it

Use this warm bronze-taupe colourway on a statement armchair, dining chair or traditional sofa, pairing it with aged wood, tobacco leather and soft olive or stone accents. Its muted depth also suits layered, softly lit rooms where the paisley detail can be seen at close range.

The warm bronze-taupe ground and intricate paisley repeat bring softly formal character to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Cleadon Antique Bronze without fighting it. 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.
