About this fabric

This colourway is catalogued as a fabric and has no performance features noted in the supplied specification. Its russet-red tone sits between brick and rust, with darker and lighter threads creating a gently weathered depth. Fine horizontal striations give the surface a quiet, directional movement, while the light catches parts of the weave with a restrained sheen. The fine, fluid appearance makes it best suited to drapery.

How to use it

Use 072 Russet for full-length curtains where its warm red depth can act as the room’s focal colour. Pair it with aged timber, dark bronze or muted neutrals to emphasise the shade’s earthy character.

Use this warm russet shade for softly lustrous curtains that bring depth and warmth to a room.

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.
