About this fabric

This colourway combines a light string-beige ground with delicate grey-beige lines, giving it a gently weathered depth rather than a completely flat appearance. Tiny interlocking geometric marks form a low-contrast lattice across the swatch, while the close weave keeps the pattern discreet. The compact woven surface looks visually substantial enough to catalogue for upholstery, although no composition, width or rub-test figures have been supplied. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Brook String on an armchair, dining chair or tailored sofa where its pale warm beige tone can soften darker timber and stone. The restrained geometric texture also works well alongside plain linens and other quiet neutrals.

Use its pale string-beige ground and fine grey detailing to bring a softly textured, understated finish to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Brook String Fabric without fighting it. 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.
