About this fabric

The design is formed from repeating vertical stripes, with broader poppy-red lines set against a soft cream background and edged by finer dark lines. Its warm red is vivid without reading as deep burgundy, while the pale ground keeps the overall effect bright and balanced. The surface appears compact and evenly woven, giving the stripes a clean, controlled outline rather than a soft or painterly character. No composition, width, rub-test or performance data has been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Coquelicot where a room needs confident vertical direction: as full-length curtains against warm neutrals, or on a tailored chair with cream upholstery and restrained dark accents. Its poppy-red stripes also suit cushions that introduce a clear, graphic note without overwhelming the pale ground.

Use the warm cream ground and poppy-red striping to bring tailored rhythm to curtains, cushions or occasional upholstery.

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.
