Matchsticks Ladybird Red

Name: Matchsticks Ladybird Red
Brand: Scion
SKU: SCF0128-02

Matchsticks Ladybird Red pairs a warm, softened red with an ivory ground in a tightly spaced linear motif. The small geometric marks sit clearly across the textured surface, giving the colourway a lively but composed presence.

About this fabric

This substantial 600gsm fabric has a visibly tactile woven texture, with short red bars and dotted accents arranged in regular horizontal rows. The Ladybird red reads warm rather than blue-toned, while the pale ivory background keeps the overall effect bright and balanced. Its 18cm vertical and 23cm horizontal pattern repeat creates a consistent, compact rhythm across the 143cm usable width. The weight and structured surface make it particularly well suited to upholstery.

How to use it

Use it on a statement armchair, dining seat or upholstered headboard where the warm red marks can lift an ivory, natural timber or softly neutral room without becoming overly dominant.

Use the warm red-and-ivory geometry to bring crisp pattern and textural depth to upholstered seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Matchsticks Ladybird Red without fighting it. 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.
