About this fabric

Carlotta Tomato/Teal from the Medora collection is a 138cm-wide fabric with an approximate vertical repeat of 5cm and horizontal repeat of 4cm. Its 54% viscose, 22% polyester, 15% linen and 9% cotton composition gives the cloth a lightly textured, woven hand that sits comfortably in the mid-weight range. In this colourway, muted teal diamonds are punctuated by tomato-red details, while the pale ground keeps the pattern feeling airy rather than dense. The overall effect is smart but not severe, with the small repeat adding rhythm without overpowering a room.

How to use it

This colourway works well on a small armchair, upholstered headboard or tailored cushions where the teal can cool a scheme and the tomato notes add warmth. It also brings character to curtains or blinds in rooms with oak, walnut or painted timber finishes.

Use with warm woods and plain linens to let the tiny repeat and fresh contrast colours lead.

Pairs well with

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