About this fabric

The woven plaid is built from broad black and dark green blocks, with strong red stripes creating a distinctly traditional Stewart character. Narrow navy, cream and yellow lines add a measured grid of detail and catch the light more subtly than the saturated red crossings. Its dense-looking, closely woven surface reads as structured rather than fluid, making it well suited to upholstery. No performance features are noted in the supplied record, so suitability should be assessed against the intended project and use.

How to use it

Use this colourway on a reading chair, bench or statement sofa where its black ground can anchor warmer timber and leather. Pick up the red with restrained accents, while keeping surrounding walls and textiles quiet enough for the tartan grid to remain defined.

A structured tartan for adding depth and traditional character to upholstered seating.

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.
