About this fabric

The swatch is a deep damson shade, sitting between burgundy, plum and brown rather than reading as a bright red. Its face is predominantly plain, with fine cloudy variation that gives the dark colour subtle depth. Under the even light, the surface looks matte and gently textured, without a visible printed motif or strong directional sheen. No performance features are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use this brown-plum damson on tailored upholstery where its muted depth can anchor a room without the sharper intensity of a vivid red. It will sit naturally with other dark, earthy tones and softly lit interiors.

Its brown-plum depth suits tailored upholstery in rooms with a darker, more considered palette.

Earth - Damson 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.
