Dimensions FabricCCF0074-11

Patina Taupe has a softly warm taupe ground crossed by chalky ivory lines, giving the swatch a gently weathered, tactile appearance. Its muted colouring keeps the irregular linear texture understated rather than graphic.

About this fabric

The surface shows broken vertical striations intersected by fine horizontal marks, forming a loose, quiet grid across the cloth. Warm taupe and pale ivory create a softly layered finish, with the lighter threads catching the eye against the deeper ground. At 536gsm, this is a substantial textile suited to upholstery, with a 138cm usable width. Both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats measure 35cm, while the standard length is 40m.

How to use it

Use Patina Taupe on a sofa, headboard or dining chair where its warm, dusted tone can soften darker wood and grounded neutral schemes. Pair it with ivory, mushroom and aged metal accents to draw out the pale linear threads.

Use its warm taupe depth to soften tailored upholstery while retaining a quietly textured finish.

Pairs well with

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