About this fabric

Woven in a blend of 59% viscose, 25% linen, 11% cotton, 3% acrylic and 2% polyester, this fabric has a dry, tactile handle that suits a versatile mid-weight use. The repeat is approximately V 18cm by H 23cm, which creates a settled, regular rhythm across the cloth rather than a large-scale statement. In Baxter Red, the motif reads as a muted coral-red against a creamy beige ground, so the overall effect is warm, worn and easy to live with. With an approximate width of 142cm and care code Q 8 + T 3, it is a practical decorative fabric with enough body for either upholstery or drapery. The √BM fire code is also noted.

How to use it

Use it to warm up neutral upholstery, or to bring a subtle red note into curtains and loose covers. It works especially well with timber, linen, and stone-toned interiors where the softened red can read as rich rather than brash.

A lively small-scale animal print in a softened red that brings warmth without overpowering.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Baxter Red 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.
