Sebastian Red is a finely patterned woven fabric with a warm terracotta-red ground and tiny repeating diamond motifs in softened contrast tones. The surface reads textural and tailored, with a quietly aged feel that softens the geometry.

About this fabric

From Colefax and Fowler’s Tarn collection, Sebastian Red is a fabric with a repeated geometric motif and an approximate vertical repeat of 10cm and horizontal repeat of 12cm. The composition blends 35% viscose, 33% linen, 13% polyester, 11% wool, 4% cotton and 4% polyamide, giving the cloth a tactile, slightly slubbed look rather than a flat printed finish. In this colourway, the red is softened toward terracotta, with muted green-blue and pale neutral highlights that keep the pattern crisp without making it harsh. At 138cm wide, it is a versatile decorative fabric with a smart, understated character.

How to use it

Use Sebastian Red to add warmth to a study, dining chair, or tailored cushion scheme where the small-scale pattern can be appreciated up close. Its earthy red tone pairs especially well with aged woods, chalky neutrals and deep green accents.

A refined small-scale geometric that brings warmth and pattern without overpowering a room.

Pairs well with

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