Studio Stripe from our Paint Pot collecion - winner in Homes and Gardens Design Awards for best stripes collection

Paint Pot is a fun and vibrant collection of 39 classic stripes, checks and textured plains designed to let you run wild with colour and pattern to create eye-catching schemes that are elegant yet playful. Bold and bright, these weaves upholster like a dream and hang beautifully as drapes, setting you free to colour your world, your way.

Alongside bold colour and pattern, this collection includes 19 plains, perfect for those who appreciate simple yet versatile fabrics. These textiles feature a subtle napped finish, working tonally with many designs from not only this collection, but our full fabric range.

When Ian Mankin founded our company in 1983, this vision was to take well-crafted, natural fabrics and transform them into fashionable and beautiful interior schemes. He coined the term “accessible elegance”. While this collection stays true to our roots, it also introduces a striking new colour palette in our classic checks and stripes.
