Description

A rich rust shade gives this Yorkshire tweed a warm, autumnal feel, with a subtle marl running through the weave to add depth and texture. The tone sits somewhere between burnt orange and earthy copper, making it easy to pair with navy, cream or charcoal.

Woven in Yorkshire from 100% wool and weighing 300gsm, this is a substantial tweed with structure and durability. It holds its shape well, making it ideal for coats, jackets, tailored skirts and heritage-style pieces. As British deadstock, it’s limited in quantity and unlikely to be repeated.

Care & washing

Allow 2-10% shrinkage to be on the safe side. Wash the fabric before making up, in the same way you'll wash the finished make, drying methods included, so it settles once rather than after it's sewn.

Test a sample area first to find the most suitable way to wash it. We can't accept liability for fabrics washed or treated incorrectly.

I wanted a warm curtain fabric that wasn’t too bulky as the space available is limited and I wanted to allow in plenty of light when the curtains were open. This saltaire wool fabric in rust has been perfect for the space and the room, which is already much cosier.
