About this fabric

Woven in 82% viscose and 18% linen, Eaton Check Fawn has a balanced handle that sits comfortably in the mid-weight range, making it suitable for both upholstery and drapery. The check is repeated at approximately 12cm vertically and horizontally, creating a regular grid that reads clearly in this soft, warm colourway. Its fawn bands are golden-beige rather than dark brown, so the design feels light, polished and easy to live with. The 140cm approximate width gives good coverage for larger furnishings, while the Q 8 + T 3 care code and √BM fire code provide the practical specification details for specification-led projects.

How to use it

Use this fawn check on an occasional chair, cushions or relaxed curtains where you want a warm, orderly pattern without high contrast. It pairs neatly with oak, chalky paint colours and natural linens, keeping the room softly tailored.

A refined fawn-and-cream check that brings warmth without feeling heavy.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Eaton Check Fawn without fighting it. 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.
