About this fabric

The Russet colourway is led by a deep, warm terracotta ground, with cream leaves, muted blue-grey accents and taupe-brown outlines giving the pattern a softly weathered depth. Repeating stems, stylised blooms and pointed leaves create a formal, closely packed composition across the cloth. At 667gsm and 93 threads per cm, this is a substantial woven textile with the visual density expected of an upholstery-weight fabric. The usable width is 135cm, while the pattern repeats every 78cm vertically and 67cm horizontally.

How to use it

Use this warm russet colourway on a statement armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard, balancing its ornate floral density with quiet cream, natural wood or smoky blue-grey surroundings. Its terracotta depth also works well as a grounding accent among richer autumnal tones.

A substantial, finely detailed floral weave suited to upholstered seating and furniture in richly layered interiors.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Wilton Weave Russet without fighting it. 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.
