About this fabric
This Medora colourway has a woven chevron-like rhythm with jagged vertical movement that reads clearly across the cloth. The red sits in a muted terracotta-rose range, while the green is an earthy olive that keeps the overall effect grounded. At approximately 134cm wide and with a repeat of V 30cm / H 34cm, it is a practical patterned textile for tailored schemes. The composition of 78% viscose, 9% acrylic, 5% polyester, 5% wool and 3% cotton gives the surface a soft, slightly lustrous handle with enough substance for both upholstery and drapery use. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied.
How to use it
Use this red and olive colourway to warm up a study, dining room or cushion scheme where you want pattern without harsh contrast. It pairs neatly with aged wood, brushed brass and quiet neutrals that let the weave’s colour shifts stand out.
A lively zigzag weave that brings tailored colour without feeling too loud.

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