Orta Fabric

Orta Red Ochre has a warm, earthy red-brown ground with ochre, taupe and russet flecks visible across its tightly woven surface. The fine interlaced texture gives this plain fabric gentle tonal movement rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

Woven from 43% linen, 51% viscose and 6% polyester, Orta Red Ochre combines a natural-looking fibre texture with a softly varied red-ochre tone. The close-up shows tiny interlaced threads, with lighter taupe strands and darker russet notes tempering the warm base. At approximately 137cm wide, it is suitable for curtains and fixed upholstery. It is rated for Contract and General Domestic use and should be dry cleaned.

How to use it

Use this warm red-ochre colourway to bring grounded colour to a dining chair, headboard or fixed sofa, or let it warm a room through full-length curtains. Balance the russet depth with aged timber, oatmeal neutrals or muted olive accents.

Use its warm, earthy red-ochre weave to add depth to curtains, dining chairs or fixed 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.
