About this fabric

The colour sits between creamy beige and natural oatmeal, giving the surface a warm, light-catching depth rather than a stark off-white appearance. A fine, low-contrast weave runs across the face, with subtle vertical and horizontal variation that keeps the plain ground from looking flat. The chenille texture reads as softly brushed and substantial in the close-up, making this colourway particularly suited to upholstery. No further technical specification data is supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Pair the warm ecru tone with walnut, aged oak, natural linen and softly coloured plaster for a calm, layered scheme. It also provides a gentle light neutral against charcoal, deep green or russet accents.

Use this warm ecru upholstery to soften darker timber, stone and painted joinery.

Pairs well with

House Chenille Ecru | House Fabrics 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.
