About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric has a substantial 340 gsm weight and a 230 threads/cm specification, which supports its use for upholstery as well as decorative schemes that need visual depth. The 142 cm usable width gives good coverage for larger projects, while the 42 cm vertical and 36 cm horizontal repeat create a balanced damask layout. In this colourway, the claret base feels warm and jewel-like rather than bright, and the pattern sits just darker than the ground so the design appears elegant rather than high-contrast. The woven surface has a smooth, tightly finished look, with the damask motif forming a refined, traditional repeat.

How to use it

Pair this deep claret with walnut, oak or gilt accents for a room that feels layered and formal. It works especially well on a statement chair, ottoman or upholstered headboard where the repeated damask can be seen across a broad surface.

Use with warm neutrals and dark woods to let the rich claret pattern take centre stage.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Lymington Damask Claret 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.
