About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric, Ultra Pillarbox presents a near-uniform textile surface in a saturated pillarbox red. The close-up shows no printed motif; instead, a very fine, understated texture gently breaks up the colour. Its deep red tone has a warm visual character, with only slight tonal variation across the face of the swatch.

How to use it

Use this bold pillarbox-red colourway on a statement chair, ottoman or sofa to create a rich focal point. Balance its saturated warmth with chalky neutrals, dark timber or touches of aged brass.

The saturated red gives plain seating a confident, graphic focal point.

Pairs well with

Ultra Pillarbox 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.
