About this fabric

The colourway combines warm red-brown grounds with muted olive and khaki bands, while charcoal lines give the pattern a darker, more structured edge. Broad intersecting checks create a large-scale grid, but the softly irregular weave keeps the geometry from feeling severe. The dense-looking surface has a lightly napped, weathered appearance that catches the light unevenly across the swatch. This is a grounded, relaxed choice for upholstery where its earthy contrast and substantial visual weight can be appreciated.

How to use it

Use Skye - Almandine on a club chair, ottoman or relaxed sofa, balancing its russet and olive tones with charcoal, aged timber and warm neutral walls. Keep surrounding patterns quieter so the broad check remains the room’s main graphic element.

Use the russet, olive and charcoal check to bring grounded colour and tactile depth 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.
