Amery Red
Millbrook FabricF4227-01
Amery Red is a tightly textured weave in a warm tomato-red tone, with tiny lighter flecks that soften the colour and give it movement. The close repeat creates a steady, finely patterned surface that reads crisp rather than heavy.

About this fabric
This Colefax and Fowler fabric from the Millbrook collection is woven in 63% Cotton, 26% Viscose and 11% Linen, with an approximate width of 145cm and a vertical and horizontal repeat of about 1cm. The swatch shows a compact small-scale pattern with a ribbed, nubby surface and a red ground lifted by lighter specks that keep the colour from looking flat. Amery Red has a warm, confident depth that sits between scarlet and terracotta, so it feels richer than a bright primary red but still energetic. With no performance features noted and a cloth-like handle suggested by the cotton/viscose/linen mix, it works well where a tailored but approachable finish is wanted. The CM fire rating is also noted for specification purposes.
How to use it
Use this red to bring warmth to a mid-century chair, dining banquette or upholstered headboard, especially against walnut, oak or dark painted joinery. It also pairs neatly with natural linens and earthy neutrals, where the colour can act as the room’s strongest accent.
A lively red with enough texture to add interest without overpowering a scheme.

Amery Red is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
