About this fabric
Woven in 100% silk, Genoa Red has a crisp, closely ribbed texture that catches the light in narrow vertical lines. The repeat is effectively plain at V 0cm / H 0.5cm approx, so the interest comes from the weave and the way this colour shifts between coral, rose and brick-red tones. At 138cm approx wide, it is suited to elegant drapery and light decorative use where the silk’s sheen can be appreciated. The red is warmed with a pinkish undertone, making it feel less formal than a deep crimson and more inviting in daylight. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are provided for this exact fabric.
How to use it
Use this shade for tailored curtains, roman blinds or statement cushions where a warm red is wanted without heaviness. It pairs well with pale oak, chalky neutrals and deeper berry accents, letting the silk’s sheen bring depth to a calm room.
A refined silk with a warm coral-red glow that works beautifully for tailored curtains or decorative upholstery accents.

Genoa Red is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
