About this fabric

The visible weave has a substantial, nubby tweed character, with fine flecks creating depth across the brown and olive-toned surface. Vertical burgundy and charcoal stripes are joined by quieter horizontal lines, forming a subdued plaid rather than a crisp, high-contrast check. Small mustard-gold accents catch intermittently between the darker threads, warming the overall colourway. Its visibly robust woven handle makes it a natural choice for upholstery.

How to use it

Use Colour Eleven on a country armchair, bench or tailored sofa, pairing its olive-brown base with oatmeal, rust, charcoal or aged leather. The muted burgundy stripes can be picked up in cushions without making the scheme feel overly colourful.

Use this earthy tweed on upholstered seating, with warm neutrals and aged timber to echo its rustic depth.

Pairs well with

Yorkshire Tweed Colour Eleven 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.
