Blakesley Mole shows a softly marbled weave in warm mole taupe, with pale ribboning that lifts across the surface. Its tonal movement gives the design depth without feeling busy.

About this fabric

This drapes-only fabric is composed of 68% Recycle Polyester, 26% Cotton and 6% Polyester, with a width of 140cm and a substantial 315 grams per linear metre. The surface reads as a textured weave rather than a flat print, with swirling lines of pale stone and oatmeal working over a muted mole-brown ground. In this colourway the overall effect is earthy and restrained, but the lighter threads add a subtle pearly sheen that catches the light. With a 28cm vertical repeat and 24cm horizontal repeat, the pattern has enough scale to feel decorative while still suited to a tailored window treatment.

How to use it

Use Blakesley Mole for full-length curtains where the soft brown base can warm up plaster, oak or painted timber. It works especially well in smart, neutral rooms that need texture rather than strong contrast.

A muted mole tone with pearly movement; ideal for tailored curtains and soft layered schemes.

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