Perry Red

Elara FabricJ0307-08

Perry Red is a softly muted red with a fine, linen-like surface and a calm, even appearance across the cloth. The colour sits closer to a dusty berry than a bright crimson, giving it depth without heaviness.

About this fabric

This colourway shows a restrained red-brown cast, softened by the cotton and linen in the weave and finished with a lightly textured, matte look. Elara is supplied here at approximately 142cm wide, with a composition of 71% Cotton, 18% Acrylic, 7% Linen and 4% Polyester, and a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx. The close weave reads neat and tailored rather than rustic, while the colour feels warm, grounded and slightly subdued in the light. With no pattern repeat to interrupt it, Perry Red is easy to cut for broad upholstery panels, relaxed drapes or pared-back scheme pieces. The Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code support everyday residential use.

How to use it

Use Perry Red to bring warmth to oak, walnut or painted timber, especially where you want colour that feels richer than blush but quieter than true red. It pairs well with chalky neutrals, tobacco leather and deep olive accents.

A quiet red with a dry, natural handle that works beautifully in tailored upholstery or clean-lined curtains.

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.
