Lars Plain Scarlet is a muted scarlet-red plain weave with a fine, clearly visible crosshatch texture. The close-up shows subtle pale threads running through the warm red ground, giving the colour a softened, tactile quality rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

This Linwood fabric is supplied at approximately 137cm wide and is intended for fixed upholstery in contract and general domestic settings. Its composition is listed as 15% linen, 20% acrylic, 20% viscose and 40% cotton, creating the mixed-thread appearance visible across the surface. The scarlet tone reads warm and gently weathered, with lighter yarns breaking up the colour in the weave. Professional dry cleaning only is specified.

How to use it

Use this softened scarlet on a fixed-upholstered armchair, dining seat or sofa to introduce warmth without the high gloss of a velvet. Pair it with aged timber, warm neutrals and dusty pinks to echo the lighter threads visible in the weave.

A softly textured scarlet plain weave for fixed upholstery, with enough tonal variation to add depth without introducing a pattern.

Pairs well with

Lars Plain Scarlet 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.
