About this fabric

The colour is a deep, warm red rather than a bright scarlet, creating a grounded and confident impression. Fine diagonal ridges run consistently through the weave, adding a discreet linear texture without introducing a separate motif. Slight shifts between red and darker red threads give the surface depth while keeping its overall appearance calm and even. The dense-looking, mid-weight appearance makes this a versatile choice for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Pair this warm red with aged wood, russet leather or soft neutral walls for a room with depth and character. Used on a chair or tailored curtain, the fine twill keeps the strong colour considered rather than overpowering.

Use this richly coloured twill to bring warmth and subtle woven texture to upholstery, cushions or full-length curtains.

Pairs well with

Islay Twill Red 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.
