About this fabric

This colourway shows a warm beige ground with a subtly speckled, linen-like handle that reads calm rather than flat. The weave appears fine and even, with the slight irregularity you would expect from its 57% viscose, 21% cotton, 12% linen and 10% polyester composition. With a repeat of V 0cm / H 0cm approx and a width of 145cm approx, it is a straightforward plain cloth that layers easily into both classic and contemporary schemes. The colour sits between biscuit and taupe, making it feel more tailored than creamy and less cool than grey.

How to use it

Use it on a clean-lined sofa, dining chair or upholstered headboard where the muted beige can soften stronger woods and paint colours. It also makes a handsome curtain fabric in rooms that need a warm, settled neutral without adding pattern.

A refined neutral that works beautifully across upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with

Marldon Beige 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.
