About this fabric

This Pelham fabric has a small-scale vertical repeat of approximately V 9cm / H 7cm, which gives the design a neat, rhythmical look across the surface. The 38% viscose, 32% cotton, 17% polyester and 13% linen composition helps explain the fabric’s textile-rich handle and the slightly dry, woven character visible in the image. In this colourway, the red is restrained rather than bright, sitting in a brick or terracotta register, while the green is olive-toned and muted, so the overall effect feels grounded and traditional. At 144cm wide, it is a practical fabric for both upholstery and drapery applications, and the √BM fire code supports use in many contract and domestic schemes.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a small armchair, blind or cushions where the compact pattern can be appreciated up close. The brick-red and olive palette sits especially well with walnut, aged brass and other deep, warm finishes.

A compact, heritage-style pattern that works well on tailored upholstery or structured 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.
