About this fabric

Woven in 100% Silk and offered at an approximate width of 138cm, Lucerne Taupe has a clean, unbroken appearance with no visible repeat, making the colour and finish the focus. The shade sits between beige and brown, softened by a pale, silken cast that keeps it airy rather than heavy. Its surface has a delicate lustre that catches light without looking glossy, giving the cloth a smooth, elegant handle in the image. The supplied care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM confirm this is a proper interior textile suited to considered furnishing schemes.

How to use it

Use Lucerne Taupe for full-length curtains, Roman blinds, or relaxed upholstered pieces where you want warmth without visual weight. Its muted taupe tone pairs especially well with oak, chalk white, and deeper brown accents.

A quietly lustrous silk for elegant curtains or refined upholstery accents.

Pairs well with

Lucerne Taupe 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.
