About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, this Colefax and Fowler fabric has a natural dry handle and a relaxed surface that suits both upholstery and drapery. The check is set on a light oatmeal-beige ground, with muted brick-red bands and narrower pinstripes that keep the pattern looking balanced and airy. The approximate repeat is 24cm vertical by 17cm horizontal, giving the design a steady, medium-scale rhythm across the cloth. With a width of approximately 140cm and fire code √BM, it is a practical textile for rooms that want pattern without heaviness. The red reads softened and slightly weathered, which helps it sit comfortably in traditional or country schemes.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a compact armchair, bench cushion or relaxed curtains where the muted red can add warmth without feeling bold. It pairs particularly well with painted wood, tan leather and aged brass, and the pale ground keeps it from darkening a room.

A warm, country-leaning check that works well on loose upholstery or simple curtains.

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.
