Marietta Red Earth

Marietta FabricLF2441C

Marietta Red Earth appears as a warm, earthy terracotta linen with a close, even plain weave. The surface has subtle tonal variation that keeps the rich red-brown shade from looking flat.

About this fabric

This colourway balances softened rust with a deep red-earth undertone, giving it a grounded warmth rather than a bright or highly saturated red appearance. The fine plain weave is clearly visible across the swatch, with small irregularities that reflect the natural character of linen. Made from 100% linen, it is approximately 137cm wide. Its stated usage is curtains and cushions, and the recommended after-care is dry cleaning.

How to use it

Use the warm red-earth tone to bring depth to relaxed curtain panels, or repeat it in cushions against natural timber, cream or muted stone furnishings. Its softened terracotta cast works especially well where a room needs warmth without a vivid accent colour.

A warm red-earth linen for relaxed curtains and softly tailored cushions.

Pairs well with

Marietta Red Earth 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.
