About this fabric

The close-up shows an even, plain surface rather than a motif, with fine fibres creating a gently tactile finish. Portobello sits between vivid berry and deep plum, giving the colour a strong, jewel-like presence without appearing flat. Slight tonal variation across the surface suggests a soft nap that catches the light in delicate vertical and diagonal shifts. With no performance or composition specification supplied, this colourway is best assessed visually as a plush-looking fabric suited to upholstery.

How to use it

Use Portobello on a statement armchair, dining chair or sofa where its rich magenta-purple tone can act as the room’s focal colour. Balance its depth with warm wood, aged brass, dusty pink or muted neutral textiles.

Use this deep magenta-purple shade to bring saturated colour and plush visual depth to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Spectrum - Portobello 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.
