Henley FabricCCF0055-31

Henley Sesame is a warm, pale beige woven with a softly mottled, flecked surface. Fine light and darker yarns break up the neutral ground, giving the swatch quiet depth rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

At 368 gsm, Henley Sesame has a substantial woven handle suited to upholstery, with a close, irregular texture visible across the swatch. Its warm sesame colouring sits between creamy beige and light biscuit, while the mixed yarns create gentle tonal variation as the surface catches the light. The fabric has a 137 cm usable width and a standard length of 40 m. With no vertical or horizontal pattern repeat, the plain textured construction can be positioned without matching a motif.

How to use it

Use Henley Sesame on an armchair, sofa or headboard where its warm biscuit-beige tone can soften darker wood, stone and earthy accent colours. Pair it with ivory textiles for a light scheme, or introduce muted olive and terracotta to draw out the weave’s understated warmth.

A warm, tactile sesame weave for relaxed upholstered seating and softly layered neutral interiors.

Pairs well with

Henley Sesame 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.
