About this fabric

This colourway of Chilgrove reads as a deep, earthy red, lifted by green medallions, ivory outlines, and small blue accents that stop the pattern feeling too heavy. The design has a clear woven texture and a substantial, upholstery-friendly handle, while the repeat sits at approximately V 56cm / H 136cm on a width of approximately 136cm. Its composition of 49% Viscose, 26% Linen, 8% Polyester, and 17% Cotton gives the cloth a natural, slightly dry look with a softer sheen than a pure linen would have. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

This red/green palette works well as a statement on a sofa, dining chairs, or a fitted bench where the pattern can read at full scale. Pair it with aged woods, warm neutrals, and a little cream to balance the richness of the ground colour.

Use it to bring rich, patterned character to cushions, curtains, or an accent chair.

Pairs well with

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