About this fabric

The surface is densely woven, with tiny intersecting threads creating a subtle grain rather than a printed motif. Its red tone is softened by brown and charcoal flecks, giving the colourway a grounded, weathered character instead of a bright or highly saturated finish. The even texture and apparent substance make it a natural choice for upholstery. No composition, width or performance features are supplied for this fabric, so suitability should be confirmed against the intended project.

How to use it

Use this warm russet-red on a chair, sofa or footstool where its understated weave can add colour without dominating the room. Pair it with walnut, aged timber, tobacco leather or quiet neutrals to draw out the brown depth in the shade.

A quietly textured russet weave that brings warmth and depth to upholstered seating.

Donegal - Red 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.
