About this fabric

This Jane Churchill Emile II fabric is a plain woven textile with no repeat, making the rich red colour feel uninterrupted across the cloth. The 50% cotton and 50% polyester composition gives it a practical balance of natural softness and added stability, while the 140cm approximate width suits a range of upholstery projects. In this colourway, the shade sits firmly in a bright, warm red rather than a blue-based crimson, giving it a lively, tailored energy. The finish looks smooth and matte rather than shiny, so the colour appears bold without feeling glossy or harsh. Care code C 8 + T 3 and fire code K are both supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Emile Red to bring warmth and drama to a chair, banquette or footstool, especially where the room needs a crisp focal point. It pairs well with pale neutrals, dark woods and brass for a polished look.

A bold red that works well on tailored seating or statement cushions.

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.
