About this fabric

This colourway has a rich, warm red tone that becomes almost burgundy where the fabric folds away from the light. Its fine, directional-looking pile creates a soft nap effect, with brighter crimson areas beside dense, near-black red shadow. No motif is visible, allowing the changing surface sheen to define the design. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this fabric; visually, its weight and lustre read most naturally for upholstery.

How to use it

Use Geo 12 on a feature armchair, ottoman or traditional sofa where its deep crimson tone can act as the room’s dramatic focal point. Pair it with aged brass, dark timber and quieter neutral upholstery to balance the high-colour surface.

A richly lustrous crimson textile with a velvety surface, suited to statement upholstery.

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.
