Eaton Check Red/Navy

Name: Eaton Check Red/Navy

Eaton Check Red/Navy combines a classic check with a softly weathered surface and a tailored, orderly layout. The red tones sit against cream, with cool navy accents that give the cloth a sharp, balanced rhythm.

About this fabric

This Colefax and Fowler fabric is composed of 82% viscose and 18% linen, giving the check a smooth but slightly slubby handle that reads clearly in the weave. The repeat is approximately V 12cm / H 12cm, and the 140cm width makes it practical for curtains as well as seating pieces. In this colourway, the red is muted rather than bright, with a dusty warmth that is tempered by the navy blocks and pale ground. The result is a smart checked cloth with a relaxed, lightly worn character rather than a stiff tartan effect. Fire code √BM is noted for this fabric, with care code Q 8 + T 3 supplied.

How to use it

Use it for tailored armchairs, ottomans or country-house curtains where the red feels warm and the navy keeps the palette grounded. It pairs neatly with painted timber, pale neutrals and darker blue accents.

A crisp checked fabric with a softened country-club feel.

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