About this fabric

Woven in a 39% cotton, 34% linen and 27% viscose cloth, Ashlar Tomato has the balanced handle of a decorative fabric that can work across upholstery and drapery projects. The design is set on a calm ivory-cream ground, allowing the large-scale floral motifs and scrolling stems to stand out in tomato orange, apricot, blush pink and earthy beige. The repeat measures approximately V 77cm / H 62cm, which gives the pattern a generous, meandering rhythm across the width of 123cm approx. Q 8 + T 3 care and √BM fire code are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

This colourway works well in rooms that need warmth without heaviness, especially when paired with pale oak, chalky paint colours and simple upholstery shapes. It also brings a fresher, brighter note to classic schemes, where the tomato and coral tones can be echoed in cushions or lampshades.

Use with pared-back linens and warm woods to balance the lively tomato tones.

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