Shiel Magenta

Name: Shiel Magenta
Brand: Isle Mill

Shiel Magenta brings a deep, berry-toned magenta to the broad checked structure of Aboyne. Pale cream and dusty blue blocks lighten the design, while the close diagonal weave gives each colour a softly textured surface.

About this fabric

The pattern is a large-scale plaid made from broad blocks of deep magenta, muted blue and warm pale cream. Fine diagonal twill lines are clearly visible across the woven surface, adding tonal movement rather than a flat printed finish. The magenta reads rich and slightly cool in the darker checks, while the cream sections catch the light more openly. Catalogued as a fabric, this substantial-looking woven construction is best suited to upholstery where its structured check can remain clearly defined.

How to use it

Pair Shiel Magenta with warm cream walls and pale timber to soften its saturated berry checks, or use it on an occasional chair against dusty blue accents for a more collected scheme.

Use the deep magenta checks with pale cream and dusty blue accents to bring tailored colour and woven texture to upholstery.

Pairs well with

Shiel 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.
