About this fabric

The tightly arranged weave alternates pale and slightly deeper taupe threads, creating a tactile surface that reads softly mottled at close range. The warm, dusty tone feels more enveloping than grey, while the fine herringbone remains neat and tailored rather than rustic. Supplied details note no performance features for this fabric, so its intended use should be checked against the requirements of the project.

How to use it

Pair this warm blush-taupe colourway with cream, putty and aged wood for a quiet, tonal room. Its fine chevron texture would bring discreet pattern to a tailored chair, headboard or full-length curtain.

Use this softly warm taupe weave to add understated texture to tailored upholstery, cushions or relaxed curtains.

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.
