Explorer 07
Plain Fabric
Explorer 07 combines deep burgundy and rust-brown tones with pale ivory ornament in a richly textured vertical pattern. Its weathered surface gives the colourway an aged, atmospheric character rather than a clean, graphic finish.

About this fabric
The ground shifts between muted burgundy, warm brown and brick-red, with ivory and pale taupe details defining the repeated elongated arches and scrolling motifs. The vertical arrangement creates a rhythmic, architectural effect, while the distressed-looking texture softens the formality of the pattern. Darker flecks and uneven tonal variation give the surface visible depth as the light moves across it. No performance features are noted for this colourway in the supplied information.
How to use it
Use Explorer 07 for a feature armchair, ottoman or traditionally shaped sofa where its burgundy-brown depth can anchor a room. Pick up the ivory tracery with warm neutral walls and pair it with aged wood, antique brass or faded terracotta accents.
Use this richly toned colourway on statement seating, balanced with warm ivory, aged timber and antique brass.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Explorer 07 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.
