Samar Calico

Name: Samar Calico
Brand: Black Edition

Samar Calico pairs a warm, chalky cream ground with narrow taupe zigzags in a tightly repeated woven pattern. The low-contrast colour pairing and gently uneven surface give the swatch a softened, tactile graphic quality.

About this fabric

Against a warm cream ground, closely spaced taupe zigzags form broken chevron lines that run vertically through the swatch. The weave has a softly nubby, slightly irregular surface, so the motif feels tactile rather than flat. This muted cream-and-taupe balance keeps the graphic pattern gentle, with the lighter ground giving the cloth an airy, low-contrast appearance. The supplied record lists no composition, width or performance features; the close-up provides the basis for judging this woven textile as suitable for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Use Samar Calico to bring quiet movement to a cream, stone or warm-grey room, pairing its taupe chevrons with plain upholstery and natural-toned timber.

Use the warm cream-and-taupe ground to soften upholstery or frame a calm, neutral window.

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