Kelso Damson

Kelso Fabrics FabricCCF0440-10

Kelso Damson has a dusky damson-mauve ground with a close, irregular crossweave that gives the swatch a softly mottled grey-purple appearance. Its restrained colour depth shifts subtly across the textured surface rather than reading as a flat plain.

About this fabric

This 310 gsm textile has a tactile woven appearance, with fine intersecting yarns creating visible flecks of cooler grey through the muted damson shade. The surface is non-directional, with both vertical and horizontal pattern repeats recorded as 0 cm, making the texture easy to place across a project. At 137 cm wide, it is a versatile mid-weight option for upholstery and drapery. The subdued purple-brown tone brings a grounded, quietly sophisticated character without the intensity of a saturated plum.

How to use it

Pair Kelso Damson with warm ivory, mushroom and weathered timber for a softened, tonal room, or use it to deepen a scheme of dusty pinks and greyed mauves. Its mottled weave is particularly effective on a tailored chair, ottoman or relaxed curtain where the damson tone can be seen at close range.

Use the dusky damson-mauve tone to bring depth to upholstery, curtains or layered neutral schemes.

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.
