About this fabric

This Irving fabric by Colefax and Fowler has a compact repeat of V 41cm / H 18cm approx and a width of 142cm approx, making it a practical choice for a range of interior uses. The composition of 44% viscose, 32% cotton, 13% linen and 11% polyester gives the surface a natural, slightly textured handle that reads crisp rather than heavy. In Kimber Red, the check appears as a dusty rose pink with a softly faded quality, so the colour feels warmer and less saturated than a bright red. The woven lines have a gentle rippled movement that adds interest without overpowering the room.

How to use it

Use this colourway to soften tailored upholstery, ottomans or headboards, where the pink check can add pattern without dominating. It also works well in relaxed drapery or Roman blinds against chalky neutrals, oak and aged brass.

A soft rose check that brings warmth and texture without feeling loud.

Pairs well with

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