Rockpool Red

Coast Fabric

Rockpool Red in Fryett's Coast brings a playful seaside motif to a pale, finely striped ground. The crabs read in a warm coral red, giving the design a cheerful but tailored coastal feel.

About this fabric

This 100% cotton fabric has a crisp, matte handle visible in the image, with the motif sitting cleanly on a softly striped background. The 140cm width makes it practical for curtains or lighter furnishing projects, while the 16cm vertical by 17.1cm horizontal repeat gives the crab design a steady, easy-to-place rhythm. In this colourway, the red sits closer to coral than brick, so it feels bright and fresh rather than heavy. Small dark dot details and the pale ground keep the overall look light, making the pattern feel crisp and airy.

How to use it

Use Rockpool Red where you want a coastal accent that still feels controlled, such as loose covers, café curtains, or a headboard. It works especially well with white-painted wood, pale oak, and blue-grey stripes.

Pair with chalky neutrals or navy for a crisp coastal look.

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