Elswick Paisley Faded Amethyst has a softly weathered appearance, with scrolling paisley forms picked out in faded amethyst, blue-grey and chalky neutral tones. Its layered surface detail gives the pattern an antique textile character rather than a crisp, high-contrast finish.

About this fabric

With a weight of 609gsm, this is a substantial fabric whose closely textured surface supports its large-scale ornamental design. The 148.5cm vertical repeat and 118.2cm horizontal repeat allow the sweeping paisley forms to read as a generous, formal composition across upholstered pieces. Faded lavender-amethyst tones sit alongside blue-grey, muted taupe and pale chalk notes, creating a cool, softened colourway with visible depth. The 127cm usable width and 63.9 threads per cm provide practical scale and surface density for upholstery applications, while the standard length is 27m.

How to use it

Use this cool, faded amethyst colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its large paisley repeat can be properly aligned and appreciated. Balance the blue-grey cast with warm timber, aged metal and quiet stone or taupe plains.

A substantial, ornate paisley in weathered amethyst and blue-grey, suited to statement upholstery with a softly aged character.

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.
