About this fabric

The close-set pattern forms tiny chevrons across the cloth, while the boucle-like surface adds visible loops and a gently uneven texture. Its taupe-grey colouring stays subdued rather than warm or saturated, with lighter threads catching the light against the deeper woven marks. No composition, width or rub-test figures are supplied for this colourway, so these specifications should be confirmed before ordering.

How to use it

Use this muted taupe on a generously shaped chair, sofa or headboard where its tactile boucle texture can be appreciated up close. Pair it with chalky neutrals, weathered timber and soft grey-beige accents to bring out its calm, driftwood-like tone.

Its softly textured taupe ground and fine herringbone rhythm suit relaxed, tactile upholstery schemes.

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.
