About this fabric

The colourway pairs saturated Prussian blue outlines and shaded petals with a muted grey-beige background, giving the floral composition a cooler, more atmospheric character than a bright blue ground would. A protea-like flower dominates the design, surrounded by trailing stems, small blossoms, seed pods and delicate leaves that remain clearly legible across the swatch. At 260 gsm, with 40 threads per cm, the cloth has a substantial mid-weight presence suited to both upholstery and drapery. Its 137 cm usable width is arranged around a dramatic 179.2 cm vertical repeat and 134 cm horizontal repeat, so the statement flower will need thoughtful placement on larger applications.

How to use it

Use this blue-and-warm-grey colourway to bring definition to a neutral sitting room, especially as full-length curtains or on a single reading chair. Pair it with chalky stone, natural wood and restrained navy accents so the intricate botanical drawing remains the focus.

Use the cool Prussian blue botanical on curtains, occasional upholstery or a statement chair against warm neutral finishes.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Phaedra Prussian Blue 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.
