About this fabric

This Chilgrove fabric from Colefax and Fowler is woven in a cotton, linen, viscose and polyester blend, giving the surface a natural mattity with a lightly refined finish. The design shows a large repeat, with flowing scalloped outlines framing pendant floral sprays across a warm ivory ground. In this colourway, the reds read as coral-terracotta rather than blue-based crimson, while the greens stay soft and herbaceous, which keeps the pattern airy. At approximately 128cm wide with a vertical repeat of 76cm, it suits statement curtains, decorative upholstery and matching soft furnishings where the pattern can be properly shown.

How to use it

Use Alvita Red/Green to add warmth to a neutral sitting room, especially with timber, rattan or painted cabinetry. Its creamy ground and softened green accents also work well in a country house scheme with linen, stone and aged brass.

Use in elegant rooms where the warm red motifs can sit against painted woodwork or soft neutrals.

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