Tropicale Mocha

Exotica FabricCCF0407-05

Tropicale Mocha layers oversized palm and tropical leaves across a softly mottled mocha-taupe ground. Its low-contrast colouring gives the foliage a quiet, atmospheric depth rather than a bright botanical look.

About this fabric

This substantial woven fabric has a 583gsm weight, making it well suited to upholstery and structured seating. The design combines broad, overlapping leaves with finer frond details, all rendered in tonal taupe and warm grey-brown shades. The 137cm usable width is supplied in a standard 25m length, while the pattern repeat measures 40cm vertically by 34.5cm horizontally. Subtle shifts in the woven surface catch the light across the darker ground and lighter leaf forms.

How to use it

Use Tropicale Mocha on a deep-buttoned chair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its muted warmth can soften a room without losing botanical character. Pair it with dark timber, brushed brass and warm ivory textiles to draw out the mocha depth.

A substantial tonal foliage weave for upholstered seating, headboards and occasional furniture.

Tropicale Mocha 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.
