From Peacocks to Palaces: Inside the Agra Upholstery Fabric Collection
Saint and Poet’s latest launch, the Agra Upholstery Fabric Collection, is a printed love letter to the grandeur and poetry of Indian design. Inspired by the ornamental richness of Mughal architecture, lush palace gardens, and the exotic wildlife that roams through temple courtyards, this collection offers more than fabric — it offers a story.
Each design in the Agra collection captures a moment of serenity or splendour: a peacock in full plumage among archways, birds nesting in flowering trees, koi gliding across stylised pools. These scenic patterns transform furniture and windows into immersive visual experiences. For interior designers and style-led homeowners alike, this is a collection that invites emotion, artistry, and a sense of travel into the everyday.
Printed in-house on our signature linen-blend basecloth, the Agra range is ideal for both upholstery and curtain applications — whether you’re upholstering an heirloom chair, designing a set of drapes, or crafting luxurious soft furnishings. If you’re wondering whether our fabrics work well for window treatments, we’ve covered all the key considerations in our guide: Can I Use Your Fabrics for Curtains and Blinds?.
Colour plays a starring role across the collection. Earthy ochres, deep greens, and muted naturals reference traditional Indian palettes while staying versatile enough for modern interiors. If you’re drawn to botanical or jewel-toned palettes, our Green Upholstery Fabric Collection features several Agra colourways and other complementary designs.
The Agra series joins a growing stable of expressive printed textiles at Saint and Poet. For clients who loved the dreamlike surrealism of our Figueres Upholstery Fabric Collection, Agra offers a similarly narrative quality — though grounded in heritage and place rather than abstraction. It’s decorative but not overly ornate; rich in pattern, yet refreshingly refined.
Of course, Agra also sits proudly within our full catalogue of Saint and Poet Upholstery Fabrics, which continues to grow with imaginative, design-led collections. And if you’re ready to explore every design in this range, you can browse the full Agra Upholstery Fabric Collection here.
From statement chairs to layered curtain schemes, Agra brings pattern, place, and poetry to interiors. This is fabric that speaks — of craft, culture, and the quiet power of storytelling through design.
