Ruskin Wine is a deep burgundy-red textile with a quiet, closely woven surface. The even colour is softened by fine horizontal and vertical yarn movement, giving the swatch subtle tonal depth rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric

Woven at 410 gsm with 22 threads per centimetre, Ruskin Wine has the substantial handle and compact texture expected of a robust upholstery cloth. Its dark wine tone sits between burgundy and muted red, appearing especially deep where the weave catches less light. The fabric has a 140 cm usable width and a 30 m standard length. With a 0 cm vertical and 0 cm horizontal pattern repeat, it can be cut without matching a design.

How to use it

Use this deep wine colour on a sofa, armchair or dining seat to bring a grounded, dramatic note to a room. Pair its muted red depth with dark timber, aged brass or warm neutral upholstery accents.

A dense wine-red weave suited to upholstered seating, where its rich, shadowed tone adds depth.

Ruskin Wine 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.
