About this fabric

Woven in a 72% polyester and 28% cotton blend, Santos FR Spice measures 140cm wide and has a 16.5cm pattern repeat shown railroaded. The design reads as a slender, architectural stripe field made up of broken blocks and narrow bars, with the spice tone adding warmth against the lighter ground. Terracotta and dark grey marks sit over a creamy base, giving the fabric a dry, tactile look rather than a glossy finish. Its balanced mid-weight appearance makes it suitable for both upholstery and drapery when you want pattern without heavy visual bulk.

How to use it

This shade works well with natural oak, aged brass and warm stone, where the terracotta notes feel grounded and inviting. Use it on a statement chair, bench cushion or full-height curtains to bring movement into a pared-back scheme.

Use it for tailored upholstery or relaxed curtains where the warm terracotta lifts the room without feeling bright.

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