About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this fabric has the fresh, slightly dry handle that suits a classic printed textile with clear pattern definition. The large floral repeat, measuring approximately V 66cm / H 140cm, creates a generous all-over rhythm of peonies, leaves and birds across the cloth. In this colourway the ground reads as warm coral-red rather than a deep crimson, so the cream flowers and sage-green foliage stand out sharply. The 140cm approx width gives useful scale for larger upholstery pieces or flowing curtain drops. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Pair this red with painted wood, aged brass and natural linens to balance the saturated ground. It works especially well in rooms that can take a bold, decorative floral with a warm, sunny energy.

Use it where you want a vivid, heritage floral with a lively coral-red ground.

Pairs well with

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