About this fabric

Part of the Palermo collection by J Brown, this fabric is a plain design with a visible fine weave that gives the surface a calm, even finish. It is made from 100% polyester and is specified for General Domestic use, with a Martindale rub test of 25,000 for everyday interior schemes. The swatch shows a deep saffron-orange tone with golden-brown warmth, and the light picks up the texture to create a subtle, understated shimmer. Supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, it can also be machine washed at 30 degrees or professionally dry cleaned in situ, with further care notes in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a clean-lined armchair, banquette or ottoman where the warm amber tone can bring depth to pale timber, walnut or chalky neutrals. It also works well as a rich accent against olive, rust or muted blue furnishings.

A warm saffron plain with a subtle woven glow that works beautifully on tailored seating.

Pairs well with

Palermo Sunburst 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.
