About this fabric
This 300gsm Clarke & Clarke fabric has a dense, smooth-looking face with understated tonal variation across the bordeaux ground. Its rich red-purple depth gives the colour a moody, luxurious presence without introducing a printed pattern. The vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are both 0cm, making the plain design straightforward to position. Supplied at a 144cm usable width and a standard 35m length, it is suited to coordinated upholstery and drapery applications.
How to use it
Use Alvar Bordeaux on a statement chair, sofa or full-length curtains where its dark wine tone can anchor a room. Pair it with warm timber, antique brass and softened neutrals to balance the colour’s deep, dramatic character.
Use this deep wine-red textile to bring rich, quietly dramatic colour to upholstery, curtains or layered interiors.

Pairs well with
Alvar Bordeaux is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
