Lewis Magenta

Name: Lewis Magenta
Brand: Isle Mill

Lewis Magenta brings a deep plum-magenta ground to Aboyne’s broad checked plaid, crossed by cream blocks and slim muted teal lines. Its fine diagonal weave gives the colourway a gently textured, dimensional surface.

About this fabric

The large-scale check combines rich magenta-plum squares with pale cream panels, while muted teal lines add a restrained cool accent through the design. Fine diagonal yarn detail is visible across the lighter and darker sections, softening the geometric grid with a tactile woven character. The strong magenta reads saturated and dramatic, whereas the cream areas lift the overall balance rather than allowing the colourway to feel flat or overly dark. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so its appeal rests on the visible colour contrast, structured check and woven texture.

How to use it

Use Lewis Magenta on a statement chair, footstool or tailored sofa where its deep magenta tone can lead the scheme. Pick up the cream in surrounding upholstery details or join it with muted teal accents for a considered connection to the plaid’s cooler lines.

Use this structured magenta plaid to give upholstery a confident, tailored focal point.

Pairs well with

Lewis Magenta 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.
