About this fabric

The colour sits between vivid orange and terracotta, giving it a warm, grounded depth rather than a sharp citrus brightness. Its fine, even weave produces a subtly tactile surface, while the closely spaced threads catch the light softly across the swatch. The uninterrupted plain ground keeps the strong burnt-orange tone at the centre of the design. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use this warm burnt-orange colourway to bring depth to a neutral room, particularly on a structured armchair, bench or relaxed roman blind. Pair it with chalky creams, tobacco browns and dark wood for an inviting, autumnal scheme.

Its warm, saturated orange tone adds a confident, welcoming accent to both tailored upholstery and simple window treatments.

Chelsea Burnt Orange 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.
