About this fabric

This fabric is woven in a balanced mix of 22% Linen, 22% Polyester, 22% Viscose, 19% Cotton, 12% Wool and 3% Polyamide, giving the surface a natural, lightly nubbly handle with enough body for practical use. The repeat is V 24cm / H 7cm approx and the width is 139cm approx, which suits both tailored upholstery pieces and elegant window treatments. In this colourway, the red is softened into a dusty pink-rose, while the green appears as a muted sage-beige undertone that sits quietly between the stripes. The result is a smart but gentle stripe with a warm, faded character and a subtle woven depth that catches the light without looking glossy.

How to use it

Use Silas Red/Green on a classic chair, ottoman or pelmet where its restrained rose and sage tones can soften darker woods. It also works well for curtains in rooms with warm neutrals, bringing colour without overpowering the scheme.

A soft striped weave that brings understated colour and works beautifully across upholstery or relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

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