About this fabric

This Linwood fabric is 137cm wide and composed of 88% polyester, 8% acrylic and 4% viscose. The paprika-toned ground is layered with darker and lighter rust shading, while the cool blue-grey outlines and muted cream details sharpen the repeating ogee forms. With a 46cm half drop, the pattern is suited to considered placement across curtains and fixed upholstery. It is graded for Contract and General Domestic use, with care specified as delicate washing at 30°C, dry cleaning or sponging.

How to use it

Use Helter Skelter Paprika on a statement chair, banquette or upholstered headboard where its warm terracotta depth can lead the scheme. For curtains, pair it with natural wood, aged brass and quiet blue-grey or cream plains to pick up the cooler pattern accents.

Use the warm paprika ground to bring depth to upholstery or frame curtains with quieter blue-grey and cream accents.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Helter Skelter Paprika without fighting it. 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.
