About this fabric

The pattern combines broad olive and brown checks with darker slate-blue bands and slim rust-red lines, creating a layered tartan effect rather than a crisp, high-contrast grid. Its closely woven surface has a dry, tactile look, with the small-scale interlacing visible across the swatch. The colour balance feels earthy and subdued, while the red and blue accents prevent the overall tone from becoming flat. No performance features are noted for this catalogued fabric.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a reading chair, window seat or compact sofa where its olive and brown ground can sit comfortably with timber, leather and aged metal. Pick up the rust-red lines with a small cushion or a warm-toned accessory rather than introducing another dominant pattern.

A muted, tailored plaid with enough visual depth for inviting upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

5521W/E03 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.
