About this fabric

The close-up shows a plain, velvet-like surface with fine horizontal nap marks and subtle tonal variation rather than a printed motif. Its 518 gsm weight gives the cloth a substantial handle suited to upholstered seating and other hard-wearing applications. With a usable width of 140 cm and a 0 cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeat, it can be cut without matching a design. The 25 m standard length makes this richly coloured plain suitable for larger upholstery schemes as well as individual furniture pieces.

How to use it

Use Allure Spice on a statement armchair, headboard or sofa where its warm burnt-rust tone can bring depth to stone, cream, tobacco and dark timber interiors. Pair it with aged brass or walnut to emphasise the colourway's softly luxurious surface.

A rich, warm spice tone with a softly brushed surface for statement upholstery.

Pairs well with

Allure Spice 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.
