About this fabric

The colour sits between burnt orange and terracotta, with a muted depth that reads earthy rather than bright or citrus-like. Fine woven detail runs through the surface, creating delicate vertical striations and small tonal shifts as the light catches the yarns. No composition, width or performance rating has been supplied for this colourway; its visible, mid-weight-looking weave makes it suitable to consider for both upholstery and drapery, subject to project requirements.

How to use it

Use this warm burnt orange to add grounded colour to a neutral room, where its softly varied weave can bring depth to an upholstered chair, headboard or relaxed curtain without introducing a pattern.

A warm, softly textured plain that brings earthy colour and gentle visual depth to upholstery or drapery.

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.
