About this fabric

This colourway reads as a gentle, biscuit-cream neutral with a slightly warm undertone, lifted by the texture of the weave rather than by contrast or pattern. The composition is 57% viscose, 21% cotton, 12% linen and 10% polyester, giving it a balanced feel that suits both upholstery and drapery. At approximately 145cm wide, it is a practical width for larger projects, while the repeat is effectively absent at V 0cm / H 0cm approx. The surface shown in the image has a dry, softly slubby finish that keeps the parchment tone looking relaxed rather than glossy.

How to use it

Use it to soften painted joinery, bring warmth to a linen scheme, or upholster an armchair where you want a neutral that still feels tactile. Its pale parchment tone sits especially well with oak, putty, stone and muted sage.

A softly textured parchment neutral that works quietly across upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with

Marldon Parchment 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.
