Henley String

Henley FabricCCF0055-37

Henley String has a pale, warm string-beige ground, visible through a close weave of fine light and darker threads. The surface reads softly pebbled rather than patterned, giving this colourway quiet, natural depth.

About this fabric

The close weave is made up of small, irregularly spaced threads, so the surface catches the light in tiny flecks rather than as a flat block of beige. Warm grey-taupe strands temper the creamy string base, creating a muted, gently dimensional appearance. At 368gsm, it has a substantial textile weight suited to upholstery. The 137cm usable width and 0cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeats make the continuous texture straightforward to position across a piece.

How to use it

Use the warm string-beige tone on a relaxed armchair, sofa or dining seat where its softly flecked surface can add depth without introducing a strong motif. It pairs naturally with pale woods, chalky neutrals and warm grey accents.

A warm string-beige ground with a softly flecked woven texture for relaxed upholstery.

Pairs well with

Henley String 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.
