Mowsley Mole

Essential Weaves Vol 3 FabricEWV3MOWSLEY

Mowsley Mole shows a neat repeating lattice in a soft mole-grey ground, giving the fabric a calm, tailored look. The pale pattern sits lightly across the surface, so the design reads as texture first and motif second.

About this fabric

This Ashley Wilde fabric from Essential Weaves Vol 3 is specified for drapes only, and its 145cm width makes it practical for window treatments. The cloth is woven in 68% Recycle Polyester, 26% Cotton and 6% Polyester, with a substantial 326 grams per linear metre / 225 grams per square metre handle. Visually, Mowsley Mole combines a muted grey-brown ground with an ivory-toned small geometric repeat, creating a crisp contrast that still feels understated. The 4cm vertical repeat and 3cm horizontal repeat keep the pattern fine and orderly, which suits the disciplined, woven character of the cloth.

How to use it

Use this mole-grey colourway for lined curtains, Roman blinds or soft pelmets where a subtle pattern is wanted. Its cool-neutral depth works well with pale plaster, oak and charcoal accents.

A restrained small-scale weave that adds quiet pattern without overpowering a room.

Pairs well with

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