About this fabric

The colour reads as a muted mink taupe, with warmer brown-grey depth in the ground and lighter flashes where the surface catches the light. Its irregular horizontal texture creates subtle movement without a printed motif, while the zero-centimetre vertical and horizontal pattern repeats make cutting straightforward. At 518gsm, this is a substantial fabric suited to upholstered seating and headboards. It has a 140cm usable width and is supplied in a standard 25m length.

How to use it

Use Allure Mink to bring soft, warm grey-brown depth to a sofa or chair, pairing its silvery highlights with ivory, stone and aged timber. Its quiet horizontal texture also works well on a tailored headboard where the tonal variation can be seen up close.

Use this softly shaded mink taupe on tailored sofas, occasional chairs or upholstered headboards.

Pairs well with

Allure Mink is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
