Tamarind Antique Red

About this fabric
Woven in 100% linen, this fabric has the dry, natural handle you would expect from a printed decorative cloth, and the 134cm approximate width makes it practical for larger interior projects. The repeat is a generous V 62cm half drop by H 89cm approx, which suits the tall, column-like arrangement visible in the image. Antique red dominates the flower heads, softened by terracotta, rust and coral notes, so the colourway reads warm rather than bright. Olive stems, mustard accents and tiny blue centres add contrast against the pale ground, giving the pattern a balanced, slightly timeworn look. With care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM, it is a decorative linen with a classic, collected feel.
How to use it
Use Tamarind Antique Red on relaxed curtains, tailored blinds or statement occasional upholstery where the warm red print can sit against timber and stone. It works especially well with cream walls and muted blue or green accessories to echo the small floral details.
Pair with natural linen, aged wood and muted blue accents to let the print’s warm red tones lead.

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.
