Kenya Tobacco
Kenya FabricL9280-04
Kenya Tobacco shows a sun-baked golden ground threaded with fine vertical stripes and pale geometric motifs. The overall effect is textured, linear and quietly tribal, with the pattern standing out crisply against the warm backdrop.

About this fabric
This colourway from Larsen’s Kenya collection is woven in 60% Cotton, 26% Jute and 14% Polyester, giving the surface a dry, lightly rustic handle that suits the visible slub and structure. The design has a repeat of V 20cm / H 44cm approx and a width of 130cm approx, so the narrow stripe rhythm and spaced diamond details can be planned neatly across a scheme. In Kenya Tobacco, the ground reads as a rich mustard-tobacco gold rather than a bright yellow, with grey-brown and ivory outlining that softens the geometry. The effect is warm and earthy, with enough pattern presence to add interest without overpowering a room.
How to use it
Use Kenya Tobacco on a tailored armchair, banquette or cushion stack where the golden tone can warm walnut, oak or dark leather. It also works well at window height, where the striped repeat and pale motif will read clearly in daylight.
The warm tobacco gold lifts the geometric stripe with an easy, textural feel.

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