Marzac Silex

Malou Fabric04885-06

Marzac Silex reads as a quietly luminous beige with a fine, horizontal slub texture that gives the surface gentle movement. The overall effect is calm and tailored rather than stark, with just enough tonal variation to stop it feeling flat.

About this fabric

This Manuel Canovas fabric from the Malou collection has a subtle woven texture made up of fine horizontal striations, giving the cloth a refined, slightly linen-like look. In this Silex colourway, the shade sits between warm cream and pale beige, with a muted stone tone that softens the light across the surface. The fabric is 144cm wide approx and composed of 60% viscose, 25% cotton, 8% linen and 7% polyester, so it combines a soft handle with a crisp decorative appearance. Its V 20cm / H 36cm approx repeat is present in the weave structure rather than a bold motif, making it feel understated and versatile. The √BM fire code and Q 8 < T 3 care notation are useful for specification-led projects where a smart, neutral textile is needed.

How to use it

Use this shade to bring a quiet, tailored warmth to upholstery, wall panels or relaxed curtains in rooms with oak, limewashed plaster or pale stone. Its muted beige tone sits beautifully with olive, taupe and chalky whites, adding texture without competing with stronger finishes.

A calm, tonal ground that works neatly with walnut, stone and muted accent colours.

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.
