Marla Red
Tarka FabricJ0118-02
Marla Red is a lively woven colourway with a warm coral-red ground and a pale ikat-style geometric rhythm running through it. The pattern feels crisp and textural, with the lighter markings giving the surface movement without overpowering the base shade.

About this fabric
This fabric is supplied at approximately 140cm wide and has a repeat of V 14cm / H 35cm approx, making the design easy to plan for upholstered pieces or full-width curtains. The composition of 38% Viscose, 23% Cotton, 16% Linen, 14% Polyester, 7% Acrylic and 2% Polyamide gives the cloth a natural-looking body with a subtly textured face. In this Marla Red colourway, the ground reads as a warm coral red rather than a blue-red, while the pale vertical motifs keep the overall effect bright and energetic. The woven surface has a tactile, slightly slubbed character that helps the pattern catch the light and prevents the red from feeling flat. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are also supplied for specification purposes.
How to use it
Marla Red works well as a smart accent on an armchair, ottoman or blind where the lively red can animate a neutral scheme. It also sits nicely with oak, warm whites and pared-back linen shades, letting the pale motif breathe against softer surrounding tones.
Use it for tailored upholstery or elegant curtains where the red ground and pale motif can add lift.

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