A beautiful meeting of intricate ornament and timeless indigo blue.
This striking cotton poplin features an elaborate tapestry-inspired print, combining decorative florals, geometric borders, and ornate motifs in rich shades of navy, cobalt blue, soft ivory, and touches of antique gold.
The design has a lovely vintage Mediterranean feel, reminiscent of hand-painted ceramic tiles and traditional decorative textiles.
What makes this fabric particularly special is its double border design, with beautifully detailed decorative bands running along both sides of the fabric.
The combination of structured borders and intricate floral panels creates wonderful possibilities for thoughtful pattern placement.
Elegant, artistic, and full of character — a statement print that still feels wonderfully wearable.
Hand & Drape
Made from high-thread-count, densely woven cotton poplin, this fabric has a smooth, finely woven surface and a beautifully refined hand.
At approximately 130 gsm, it offers a lovely balance between lightness and structure.
The dense weave gives the fabric a crisp, polished feel with enough body to hold its shape, while remaining comfortable and suitable for everyday garments.
It is particularly lovely for designs that benefit from clean lines, gentle volume, and a little structure.
