Chimera Terracotta

Name: Chimera Terracotta
Brand: Dedar
SKU: 131

Chimera Terracotta brings a warm, earthy character to the Chimera design, with layered terracotta, russet and pale flecks across a softly textured ground. Its repeating chevron lines create movement without losing the depth of the woven surface.

About this fabric

The fabric is visibly formed from a small, tactile weave, with pale yarns breaking through the terracotta ground to give the colour a softly mottled finish. Repeated chevron and zigzag bands run across the swatch in a medium-scale geometric rhythm. Rather than reading as a flat red, this colourway shifts between russet, clay and muted berry tones as the light catches the textured threads. No further specification data was supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Chimera Terracotta to add warmth to a reading chair, headboard or relaxed curtain scheme, pairing its clay-red tone with chalky neutrals, dark timber and aged brass. The directional zigzag can also sit neatly alongside plain linens and understated geometric accents.

A warm, textured chevron weave that brings gentle pattern and earthy colour to upholstery or curtains.

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