Guilin Empress

Name: Guilin Empress
Brand: Zinc Textile

Guilin Empress presents a deep moss-green ground crossed by pale, irregular outlines that meander across the cloth in loose, cloud-like forms. Its softly mottled woven texture gives the dark colourway subtle depth rather than a flat appearance.

About this fabric

The fabric has a dark moss-green ground with a cool charcoal cast, punctuated by pale taupe-grey lines that create wandering, organic shapes. These lightly textured lines catch the light against the softly mottled weave, adding a tactile, weathered quality to the surface. The medium-scale pattern moves in irregular horizontal and vertical bands rather than forming a regular geometric grid. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this deep, cool green on an upholstered chair, headboard or occasional seat where its pale looping motif can stand out against warm timber, cream and muted brass.

Pair this deep moss-green colourway with warm timber, aged brass and softly contrasting neutral upholstery.

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