Henley FabricCCF0055-21

Henley Lipstick is a saturated red woven fabric with a close, subtly irregular surface that gives the colour depth rather than a flat, printed finish. Its fine horizontal and vertical yarn definition is clearly visible across the swatch.

About this fabric

The dense 368gsm construction gives Henley Lipstick a substantial handle suited to upholstery. Its lipstick-red colour reads vivid and warm, with darker flecks and small shifts in the weave adding visual depth as the light moves across the surface. There is no vertical or horizontal pattern repeat, so the cloth presents as a continuous woven field rather than a motif-led design. The fabric has a usable width of 137cm and is supplied in a standard 40m length.

How to use it

Use this saturated lipstick red on a statement armchair, dining seat or buttoned footstool where its textured surface can temper the intensity of the colour. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass or quieter neutral upholstery for contrast.

The dense 368gsm weave and vivid lipstick-red tone make this a confident choice for upholstered seating and statement furniture.

Pairs well with

Henley Lipstick 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.
