About this fabric

This colourway reads as a grounded tomato red with terracotta warmth, rather than a bright scarlet, so it feels earthy and composed. The 58% linen and 42% cotton blend gives the cloth a dry, natural handle and a lightly nubby finish that softens the colour. With no repeat and a width of approximately 146cm, it is straightforward to pattern-match and easy to use on simpler, tailored schemes. The Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code make it a practical decorative fabric for interior schemes where a warm solid is needed.

How to use it

Use it on an occasional chair, headboard or bench to bring depth to oak, walnut and brass. It also makes a strong curtain when you want a colour-led window treatment that stays understated rather than glossy.

A rich terracotta shade that works beautifully across tailored upholstery and relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

Davey Tomato 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.
