About this fabric

This Casey fabric from Colefax and Fowler combines 63% viscose, 22% acrylic and 15% cotton, giving the surface a softly tactile finish with visible body and structure. The repeat is approximately V 9cm / H 18cm, and the small irregular spots are packed closely across the width for a tight, graphic effect. In Wilde Red, the motifs read as a saturated red with a slightly deeper, wine-toned edge against the lighter ground, which keeps the design crisp rather than sugary. At approximately 142cm wide and with fire code √BM, it is a practical decorative cloth for statement pieces and tailored window treatments alike.

How to use it

Pair this red colourway with dark wood, brass and plain linens to let the spotted pattern stay the focus. It works especially well on a chair or curtain where the warm ground and ruby marking can add movement to a neutral room.

Use where you want a lively red spot motif with enough substance for upholstery or curtains.

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