The Cotton Club Fabric: Blue, Red & Yellow | 1925 Deco Collection

About This Design

Blue, red and yellow ripple across this design in flame-like lotus forms, each one built from layered bands that curve and fold with genuine musicality. There's real movement here, the three colours trading the lead in a rhythm that never quite settles, blue cooling one form while red and yellow heat the next. The impasto effect gives every band a raised, almost lacquered edge, so light catches the yellow in flashes while blue and red hold their depth beside it.

Up close, the layered rippling inside each form rewards a slower look, dense and syncopated. From across a room, blue, red and yellow trade dominance in a continuous, playful sweep, nothing static about the repeat. Against the collection's more formal, symmetrical pieces, The Cotton Club carries genuine rhythm, the kind of pattern built for a room that wants to move.

The Inspiration

This one is named for the Cotton Club, the Harlem jazz club that opened in 1923 and became one of the defining stages of the era, where the music itself was built on syncopation, layering and constant motion. The Cotton Club takes that same rhythmic energy and lets blue, red and yellow carry it in a rippling, flame-lotus repeat.

What It Carries

There's a real musicality to this design that suits a room built for entertaining and energy, a bar, a music room, upholstery on a chair that wants to feel alive. Blue keeps it grounded, red and yellow bring the heat. It's a design for people who want a room to feel like it's always got a beat running underneath it.

Design Size Options

This design is available in three layout scales:

Grand: A larger-scale composition that reads with authority across statement furniture and feature walls.

Classic: A balanced, repeated layout with natural structure and rhythm. Works across most applications.

Detailed: A fine-scale repeat where the impasto texture becomes the surface itself. Ideal for scatter cushions, smaller upholstery panels, and layered soft furnishings.

💡 Style tip: Use a measuring tape to mark out 50cm on your planned project surface. That window shows you exactly how the Detailed scale brings texture and rhythm into a smaller space.
