About this fabric

Brooke Stripe Red is a 49% cotton, 51% linen fabric with an approximate width of 137cm and a vertical repeat of 0cm / horizontal repeat of 1cm. The swatch shows slim red pinstripes alternating with paler blush and natural linen stripes, creating a tidy, tailored rhythm across the cloth. The colour reads as a gentle coral red rather than a deep primary shade, so the overall effect is warm, airy and slightly sun-faded. Its cotton-linen blend adds a softly dry, matte texture that suits both upholstery and drapery use, and the very tight stripe spacing keeps the design refined rather than bold. Care code Q 8 9 T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use it to bring a light, classic note to a bench, occasional chair or pair of curtains where the red needs to feel approachable rather than strong. It pairs especially well with painted woods, ticking, and warm neutrals that echo the linen ground.

A fresh, tailored stripe that works well on classic seating or smart curtains.

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