About this fabric
The colour sits between saturated pink and warm red, creating a cheerful watermelon tone that remains softened by the small-scale texture. Viewed closely, the surface shows a dense grid of fine crossing threads, with subtle tonal variation where the weave catches the light. This is a plain fabric with no visible motif or repeat, making the colour and texture its defining features. The supplied record identifies it as a fabric but provides no further composition, width or performance specifications.
How to use it
Use Watermelon to energise a neutral room through an occasional chair, footstool or cushion, or introduce a brighter note through softly gathered curtains. Pair its warm pink-red tone with chalky creams, pale timber and muted olive or green accents.
Use this vivid watermelon tone to bring lively colour and fine woven texture to upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Acer 50 - Watermelon 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.
