Voltaire Ambre shows a rich amber-orange surface with a gently mottled, linen-like texture. The colour reads warm and grounded, with a softly luminous depth rather than a flat mustard tone.

About this fabric

This fabric has no visible repeat, with a plain ground that lets the colour and weave do the work. The 140cm approximate width and the blend of 42% cotton, 38% viscose, 15% polyester and 5% linen suggest a versatile cloth with enough body for upholstery while still feeling suitable for drapery. In this swatch, the amber shade sits between golden ochre and burnished orange, and the fine cross-weave gives it a subtle, tailored finish. The tone looks warm and slightly earthy, catching the light with a soft sheen rather than a glossy shine.

How to use it

Use this amber colourway to bring warmth to a neutral scheme, especially alongside tobacco leather, walnut, or muted moss. It also makes a striking curtain or occasional chair fabric when you want a room to feel richer and more intimate.

A warm amber tone that works beautifully on tailored upholstery or elegant curtains.

Pairs well with

Voltaire Ambre is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
