About this fabric
The swatch shows a largely plain field, with no distinct motif visible across the surface. Its russet colouring sits between warm red and brown, while the subdued light catches slight tonal variation rather than a bright sheen. The dense-looking surface has a soft, velvety appearance that supports the fabric’s upholstery-led character. In the darker areas, the shade moves towards burgundy-brown, giving it a quietly dramatic finish.
How to use it
Use 03 Russet on a statement armchair, sofa or headboard where its warm red-brown depth can anchor a room. Pair it with aged timber, dark metal and softly contrasting cream or tobacco tones to balance its near-black shading.
A rich, low-sheen russet that brings warmth and depth to upholstered furniture.

Pairs well with
03 Russet 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.
