Ideal - Tomette presents a deep, muted terracotta red with a subtle all-over texture visible across the swatch. Its compact surface catches the light softly, creating gentle tonal variation rather than a flat solid finish.

About this fabric

The colour sits between brick red and warm rust, with a restrained depth that feels grounded rather than bright or highly saturated. A fine, pebbled-looking texture runs consistently across the cloth, giving the plain design tactile interest without a visible motif. The dense appearance reads as more suited to upholstery than a lightweight curtain fabric. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Tomette on a tailored armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its warm terracotta-red tone can bring depth to cream, tobacco, walnut and aged-brass schemes. Keep surrounding patterns quieter so the close texture remains the detail that defines the upholstery.

A warm, brick-red textile with a closely textured surface that adds quiet depth to tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Ideal - Tomette 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.
