About this fabric
The sand-beige ground reads warm rather than grey, with faint clouded variation across the surface that keeps the colour from looking flat. No pattern repeat is present vertically or horizontally, making this a straightforward plain for cutting and matching. At 300 gsm, it has a versatile mid-weight handle suited to both upholstery and drapery. The 144 cm usable width and 35 m standard length provide practical coverage for larger schemes.
How to use it
Use Alvar Sand to soften a room with its warm, pale neutral tone: it works naturally on relaxed seating, upholstered headboards or full-length curtains. Pair it with darker wood, chalky creams and muted terracotta to bring out the colourway’s gentle warmth.
A warm, softly mottled sand beige for calm upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.

Pairs well with
Alvar Sand 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.
