Kempsey Red/Green
Theodore FabricF4693-02
Kempsey Red/Green is a vertical stripe with a softly aged look, combining coral-red bands, sage-green accents and a warm ivory ground. The pattern reads crisp and decorative, but the faded finish keeps it from feeling too sharp.

About this fabric
Kempsey Red/Green from the Theodore collection by Colefax and Fowler is woven in a 49% viscose, 26% linen, 17% cotton and 8% polyester blend with a width of approximately 133cm and a vertical repeat of about 19cm. The stripe layout alternates narrow decorative borders with wider coral-red columns, giving the design a clear rhythm across the cloth. Its ground colour is a creamy ivory, while the green notes sit in a muted sage range and soften the stronger red bands. The overall effect is smart and traditional with a gently worn surface character that suits both upholstery and drapery use.
How to use it
This colourway works well in rooms with pale timber, painted joinery or antique brass, where the coral red can warm the scheme without overpowering it. It is especially attractive on a bench, armchair or full-length curtain where the vertical stripes can visually lengthen the space.
Use it for tailored curtains or an upholstered accent piece where the coral stripes and sage detailing can stand out.

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