Eco-friendly, William Morris–inspired linen fabric for maximalist interiors. Printed in the UK using sustainable, eco-friendly inks on a luxury linen–cotton blend, this vibrant textile is perfect as curtain fabric, cushion fabric, or for light-use upholstery. This bold and playful printed fabric is as durable as it is a statement.

Hand-illustrated by April (no AI here!), the design takes inspiration from Arts and Crafts interiors and today’s dopamine décor trend. Featuring dramatic chrysanthemum blooms with a caustic twist, the pattern draws on the mineral Orpiment—renowned for its luminous yellows, fiery oranges, and burnished browns. Historically toxic due to its arsenic content, Orpiment becomes here a symbol of daring design, colour, and character.

This is true Modern Heritage fabric—ideal for creating standout living rooms, striking blinds, or bedroom soft furnishings.  Each metre is printed to order by April’s UK-based production team, ensuring a consciously crafted textile that reflects both sustainability and luxury.

• Available in two other show-stopping colourways; London Purple & Blue Vitriol.

About

Our luxury cotton linen is one of our bestsellers. The cotton linen blend give it a luxurious look. A slub of linen gives the fabric real character and provides surface interest.

As a medium heavyweight fabric, it is suitable for a wide range of soft furnishings such as cushions, curtains and lampshades. The base colour is a natural white and the design is printed using eco-friendly water based pigment inks.

The luxury cotton linen is pre-treated to offer excellent durability and wash fastness. Pigments are inherently UV resistance and will provide long lasting prints.

Five Stars!

"An extensive search for fabric (for drapes to complement my new decor) finally led me to this totally eye-catching print. The colors and design are beautiful, the fabric (I chose the cotton linen) has a great quality feel, and the backing is opaque enough that it won't need lining but also lets in light without obscuring the pattern! Beyond that, April has been a delight to communicate with and has repeatedly taken steps to make sure the whole experience is completely satisfying and even pleasantly surprising! Love it!"
