About this fabric

This substantial 456gsm fabric has a dense, closely woven surface that reads as soft otter taupe, balancing brown warmth with a restrained grey cast. The fine weave creates delicate striations across the cloth, while the even colour keeps the overall effect calm and refined. With a 137cm usable width and a standard length of 35m, it is well suited to covering upholstered furniture and coordinating larger schemes. The 0cm vertical and horizontal pattern repeats confirm that the surface is plain and easy to position.

How to use it

Use Jaipur Otter on a sofa, armchair or dining chair where its warm taupe-brown tone can soften darker timber and sit comfortably alongside cream, stone and muted olive accents. Its understated texture also works well as a grounding plain for more patterned cushions or curtains.

Pairs well with

Jaipur Otter 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.
