Foley Red

Foley Red is a tightly woven cloth with a finely mottled surface that mixes brick red, warm rust and softer linen-toned highlights. The effect is earthy and textural rather than bright, giving the colourway a grounded, quietly tailored character.

About this fabric
This Brett Weaves fabric from Colefax and Fowler has a small-scale woven texture with no visible repeat, creating a steady, even look across the surface. The 46% cotton, 32% viscose, 18% linen and 4% polyester composition gives the cloth a natural, slightly dry handle with enough body for structured use. In Foley Red, the weave reads as a warm brick shade softened by beige and ochre flecks, so the colour feels richer and less saturated than a clear scarlet. With a width of approximately 142cm and no performance features noted, it is a versatile decorative textile for classic interiors. The √BM fire code and Q 8 < T 3 care marking complete a specification suited to considered upholstery schemes.
How to use it
Use Foley Red on a dining chair, ottoman or accent armchair where its warm, speckled red can sit comfortably against timber and neutral upholstery. It also works well with heritage palettes, especially cream paintwork, tobacco leather and muted green accents.
Pairs beautifully with oak, linen neutrals and aged brass for a grounded, tailored look.

Pairs well with
Foley Red 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.
