A traditional checked wool from the Chess collection, Kintyre Jalapeño brings a greener, earthier character to the Kintyre family.
The simple windowpane check gives the cloth a tailored appearance, allowing the colour and natural texture of the pure new wool to remain the focus rather than creating an overly busy pattern.
Featured within The Groom’s Room at The Tack Room, Kintyre Jalapeño works naturally alongside aged leather, dark timber, antique brass and the deeper sporting tones used throughout the room.
Its green-led palette makes it particularly useful for balancing the warmer Clementine colourway and sits comfortably alongside the softer Moss design within the wider Kintyre collection.
Kintyre forms part of the Chess House Fabric collection alongside Balmoral and Braemar, with each design and colourway presented separately within the House Fabric Registry.
Handmade by Berry & Grouse and available as candle clip and drum lampshades.

HANDMADE AT THE FABRIC MILL
Each Kintyre Jalapeño lampshade is handmade by Berry & Grouse using professional lampshade-making materials and pure new wool from the Chess collection.
The check is positioned with care around each shade, while the scale and placement of the pattern will naturally vary according to the lampshade size.
Drum shades are finished with a matt white lining, rolled edges and a single neat seam.
Our drum lampshades in Kintyre Jalapeno Wool are cut on the straight of the check pattern, creating a structured, classic check appearance across the shade.
Each drum lampshade is handmade to order. As with all patterned fabrics, the exact placement of the check may vary slightly from shade to shade depending on the fabric cut and size selected.
If ordering more than one drum lampshade for the same room scheme, we recommend ordering them at the same time. Where multiple shades are ordered together, they will be made using the same fabric batch wherever possible for the closest pattern and colour continuity.
As each lampshade is handmade to order, we cannot guarantee that a future order will exactly match a previous purchase.
A coordinating candle clip lampshade is also available separately, cut on the angle of the check pattern and available as a single or pair.
THE KINTYRE COLLECTION
Kintyre Jalapeño sits alongside Moss and Clementine within the Kintyre section of the Chess House Fabric collection.
Kintyre is characterised by its simple windowpane check, giving the fabric a quieter and more tailored appearance than the fuller tartans of Balmoral.
The individual colourways allow the same pattern character to move between greener, warmer and softer country-house schemes while remaining recognisably part of the same collection.
THE GROOM’S ROOM
Kintyre Jalapeño is featured within The Groom’s Room at The Tack Room, where traditional wools and tailored checks are layered with leather, saddlery, aged timber and antique brass.
Its greener palette brings an earthy sporting tone to the room and works particularly well alongside brown leather, claret, russet and warmer checked fabrics.
The restrained scale of the Kintyre check keeps the overall look tailored and traditional rather than heavily patterned.
