About this fabric

This colourway is made up of tiny diagonal checks that create a crisp, almost mosaic-like effect across the cloth. The paprika shade sits between terracotta and brick red, with lighter yarns softening the overall finish and keeping it from feeling too heavy. It is a 100% Polyolefin (FR) fabric, supplied at approximately 138cm wide, with a repeat of V 6cm / H 4cm approx, which makes the pattern easy to plan for fitted pieces and loose upholstery alike. The tight weave and structured surface suggest a practical textile with enough visual texture to hold its own on chairs, cushions or tailored curtains. Fire code K and care code C 7 9 W 3 are noted for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Pair this warm paprika tone with pale plaster walls, walnut, and natural weaves for a grounded scheme. It also works well as an accent against oatmeal upholstery or deep green details for a richer, Mediterranean feel.

Use with oak, linen and muted neutrals to let the paprika tone bring warmth without overpowering the room.

Pairs well with

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