About this fabric

The fabric shows a mid-weight-looking woven texture, with fine horizontal and vertical yarn definition visible across the taupe ground. Ivory leaf motifs repeat closely across the surface, with dark vein lines adding crisp detail without making the pattern feel stark. In this colourway, the warm mushroom taupe gives the design more depth than a pale neutral, while the ivory leaves keep it light and readable. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair the mushroom-taupe ground with warm ivory, stone and muted brown furnishings for a gentle country-modern scheme. It can bring restrained botanical pattern to a softly upholstered chair, cushions or relaxed window treatments.

Use this softly contrasting taupe and ivory leaf design to bring quiet botanical interest to seating, cushions or curtains.

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.
