About this fabric

This Pelham fabric by Colefax and Fowler has an approx. 144cm width and a repeat of V 9cm / H 7cm, making the pattern read as a compact, regular lattice across the cloth. The composition of 38% viscose, 32% cotton, 17% polyester and 13% linen suggests a balanced woven handle, which suits the fabric's clear, structured appearance. In this colourway, the tomato red ground is tempered by tan, olive-tinged and charcoal accents, creating a warmer, slightly earthy impression rather than a bright red statement. The finish looks textural and crisp, with the motif catching the light subtly as the weave shifts across the surface.

How to use it

This shade works well on occasional chairs, ottomans or tailored cushions where its small repeat can be seen up close. Pair it with oak, walnut or muted neutrals to keep the tomato red feeling rich and grounded.

Use with warm woods and plain linens to let the crisp geometric repeat stand out.

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