About this fabric

The deep brick-russet ground gives this colourway an autumnal depth, making the floral design feel atmospheric rather than bright. Ivory-cream tulip heads and smaller honeysuckle-like blooms stand out among olive, ochre and muted-gold scrolling stems. At 265 gsm and 137 cm usable width, the fabric has the weight of a versatile mid-weight textile for upholstery or drapery. Its intricate all-over arrangement follows a 63.5 cm vertical repeat and 69 cm horizontal repeat.

How to use it

Pair the warm russet ground with aged timber, olive green and antique brass, or use it as a richly patterned accent against quiet cream upholstery. Its balanced mid-weight makes it suitable for statement curtains, occasional chairs and cushions.

Use this warm brick-russet colourway to bring depth to upholstery, curtains or cushions, balancing its cream blooms with olive and ochre accents.

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.
