Denbury Red/Sand

Denbury FabricF4875-02

Denbury Red/Sand pairs a tiny repeating motif with a soft sand ground, giving the design a measured, understated look. The red detail sits lightly on the surface, so the overall effect is warm rather than bold.

About this fabric

Woven in 44% viscose, 38% linen and 18% cotton, this fabric has a natural-looking finish with enough body to work for both curtains and lighter upholstery. The repeat measures approximately V 11cm and H 18cm, creating a closely spaced pattern that reads as a fine all-over. In this Red/Sand colourway, the motif appears as a muted brick red against a pale sandy base, with the smallest specks of tone bringing depth without heavy contrast. The 138cm approximate width and √CM fire code make it a practical specification to note when planning a scheme.

How to use it

Use Red/Sand where you want a traditional motif without a heavy, dark impact: it works well on a pair of roman blinds, a small armchair, or cushions over natural upholstery. The sandy ground keeps the red feeling soft and dry, so it sits neatly alongside oak, rush, parchment and other warm neutrals.

Pair with aged wood and linen for a refined, quietly classic scheme.

Pairs well with

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