Name: Melton Marsala

Melton Marsala has a warm russet-red tone with a softly mottled, close-woven surface. The plain textile catches the light gently across the folds, revealing understated tonal depth rather than a distinct pattern.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as a deep terracotta softened with brown, giving the red a grounded, earthy character. A fine, even weave creates the visible texture, while the plain construction keeps the surface calm and refined. The folded swatch shows subtle shifts between warmer highlights and richer shaded areas, adding depth without a motif. No composition, width or rub-test data is supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Pair the Marsala shade with warm neutrals, tobacco leather or dark timber to reinforce its earthy red-brown character. It would bring inviting depth to a chair, headboard or tailored sofa while keeping the overall scheme composed.

Use this warm russet woven for upholstered seating where its subtle texture can add depth without introducing a pattern.

Pairs well with

Melton Marsala 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.
