Dashiki Cinnabar

Amara FabricCCF0149-01

Dashiki Cinnabar brings a warm, brick-red interpretation to the Amara collection, with repeated linked ring motifs woven across an ivory ground. The dense surface gives the pattern a tactile, slightly raised appearance rather than a flat printed finish.

About this fabric

The design is formed from chunky, interlocking red loops that create rounded medallion-like rings, while the ivory background keeps the overall colourway light enough to read clearly. Cinnabar has a warm, earthy depth: the red appears softly varied across the weave, with darker edges and lighter highlights catching on the textured yarns. At 534gsm, this is a substantial fabric well suited to upholstery, and its 130cm usable width is practical for covering furniture panels. The pattern repeat measures 23.4cm vertically by 32.7cm horizontally, giving the motif a noticeable but not oversized presence on a chair, headboard or sofa.

How to use it

Use Dashiki Cinnabar on a statement armchair, banquette or tailored sofa where its warm red rings can anchor an ivory, putty or natural timber scheme. Repeat the cinnabar tone in a cushion or small accessory, while keeping surrounding surfaces quiet so the woven medallions remain the focus.

The substantial 534gsm weave and warm ivory-and-cinnabar contrast make this a confident choice for upholstered seating and occasional chairs.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Dashiki Cinnabar without fighting it. 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.
