About this fabric

The image shows a dense plain weave in a warm grey-taupe shade, with fine flecks of lighter and darker yarn creating a softly mottled surface. The restrained colour reads calm and adaptable, while the compact texture gives it a tailored, upholstery-friendly appearance. No composition, width or rub-test information has been supplied for this colourway, and no performance features are noted.

How to use it

Pair this warm taupe-grey with chalky whites, natural timber and muted olive or clay accents. It would suit a simply shaped armchair, sofa or dining seat where its quiet weave can provide understated texture.

Use this softly mottled taupe-grey weave to bring quiet warmth and texture to upholstered seating.

Sherborne 10 is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. Mixed across the houses we hold, which is the part a single supplier's book cannot do.

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.
