About this fabric

This colourway shows a pale beige ground lifted by creamy yarns, so the surface feels warm rather than stark. The compact woven structure creates a small-scale texture that catches the light softly across the cloth. Made in a 44% viscose, 30% cotton, 14% linen and 12% polyester blend, it has the look of a refined all-purpose furnishing fabric with a natural matte finish. The width is approximately 142cm, with a repeat of V 22cm and H 18cm approx, and the fabric carries the √BM fire code.

How to use it

Use Medway Beige on upholstered chairs, loose covers or streamlined curtains where you want a calm, tactile neutral. Its warm beige tone sits especially well with pale timber, putty paintwork and deeper brown or olive accents.

A softly warm neutral that layers easily with oak, linen and darker accent woods.

Pairs well with

Medway 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.
