Hector FabricF4697-01

Hector Sienna has a quiet, finely worked look, with a small herringbone check sitting over a softly weathered beige ground. The overall effect is warm and subdued rather than strong or contrasty.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% linen, Hector Sienna is a 139cm-wide fabric with a small repeat of V 0cm / H 2cm approx, giving the design a neat, compact rhythm across the cloth. The visible weave has a delicate herringbone character, so the pattern reads more as texture than as a bold graphic. This colourway blends beige, stone and muted sienna tones, creating a warm, slightly sun-faded finish that feels refined and easy to live with. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Hector Sienna on tailored armchairs, cushions or relaxed curtains where its warm beige-sienna note can soften wood, plaster and antique finishes. It works especially well in rooms that need texture without a dark or heavy result.

A soft, tailored linen that brings gentle warmth without overpowering a scheme.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Hector Sienna 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.
