Dunmore Check Tomato/Sage

Name: Dunmore Check Tomato/Sage
Brand: Colefax and Fowler
SKU: F4238-04

Dunmore Check Tomato/Sage is a classic large check with a distinctly country-house feel, shown here in a muted sage ground crossed with tomato-red stripes. The woven surface has a dry, natural handle that keeps the pattern looking soft rather than hard-edged.

About this fabric

Dunmore Check Tomato/Sage from the Magnus Checks collection is a fabric with a repeat of approximately V 29cm / H 28cm and a width of approximately 141cm. Its blend of 45% viscose, 35% cotton, 16% linen and 4% polyester gives the cloth a textured, slightly nubby character that suits a traditional checked weave. In this colourway the sage ground reads warm and subdued, while the tomato lines bring a clearer, fresher red accent without feeling overly bright. The check is open and balanced, with enough presence to hold a room but enough restraint to sit comfortably in layered interiors.

How to use it

This colourway works well on an armchair, bench or loose cover where the red-and-sage check can add structure to a neutral scheme. It also suits relaxed curtains in a kitchen, study or sitting room, especially alongside painted woodwork and natural timber.

Use it for relaxed upholstery or curtains where the warm red check can stay the focus.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Dunmore Check Tomato/Sage 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.
