About this fabric

The fabric has a visibly crosshatched, linen-like weave, giving the sand-coloured ground a dry, tactile surface rather than a smooth finish. Its elephant figures are softly outlined in muted tan and brown, while the saddle panels introduce restrained red and green accents. The open repeat and gentle contrast keep the design relaxed and approachable, with the warm beige tone reading softly under changing light. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Jehan Sand on an occasional chair, loose cushions or relaxed curtains where its warm beige ground can sit alongside natural timber, aged leather and muted red or green accents. The spaced elephant repeat is particularly effective when the fabric is allowed to remain visible across a broad panel.

The warm sandy ground and folk-inspired elephant repeat bring an easy, collected character to upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Jehan Sand 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.
