The Brand

Renowned for their classic English appeal, Colefax and Fowler fabrics have an elegance and subtlety admired worldwide. Their fabrics tell a story through delicate florals, classic stripes, and a quintessentially British style. Their own tale dates back to 1930, through a rich history, revealing collections featuring signature trailing florals, classic stripes, and delicate botanicals. 

The business was founded in the 1930s by Sibyl, Lady Colefax. By 1938, her services were so in demand that she needed to expand, she asked a star of interior decorating, John Fowler, to join her in her business in Mayfair. In 1939, the company name was changed to Sibyl Colefax & John Fowler. The brand’s collections are characterised by sophisticated designs, created using advanced printing and weaving techniques, in subtle colours. Their understated colours and sophisticated designs are the ideal choice for the relaxed and informal atmosphere that characterises the modern interior.

Colefax & Fowler epitomises the very best of English style, a style that is admired and emulated the world over. The essence of this look is a timeless elegance and subtlety, combined with an emphasis on perfect comfort, and an insistence on quality. Colefax & Fowler fabrics for upholstery are made from natural fibres and blends.

A great durable, long-lasting yet attractive fabric to use on dining chairs or bar stools.
