Metronome Spice

Name: Metronome Spice
Brand: Fryett's Fabrics

Metronome Spice brings a lively burnt-orange rhythm across a soft cream ground, with rounded dot motifs set in neat vertical bands. The effect is warm, graphic and slightly retro, with a textured surface that keeps the pattern feeling tactile rather than flat.

About this fabric

This fabric is composed of 36% Polyester, 18% BCI Cotton and 46% Ecovero Viscose, giving the design a soft, textile-rich handle and a gently matte finish. At 140cm wide, it offers a practical width for curtains, cushions and lighter upholstery projects, while the 32cm vertical repeat and 17cm horizontal repeat create a bold, regular layout. In this colourway, the orange-brown dots read as a warm spice tone against the pale background, with enough contrast to feel energetic without becoming harsh. The small rounded marks have a hand-printed feel, and the slight slubbed texture adds depth as the light moves across the cloth. Care instructions: NQT1<.

How to use it

Use Metronome Spice to lift linen sofas, tailored cushions or statement blinds, especially in rooms that need a warm, grounded accent. It pairs well with natural wood, ivory paintwork and mossy greens, where the orange tone feels rich and contemporary.

Pair with chalky neutrals or deep green accents to let the warm spice tones stand out.

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