Dara Taupe sets the lively Manon scene against a soft taupe ground, letting the colourful figures, horses and architectural details feel crisp and spirited. The muted background keeps the composition readable while giving the print a quietly refined edge.

About this fabric

Printed on 100% cotton, Dara Taupe has a natural, matte handle that suits either upholstery or drapery, with a repeat of V 99cm / H 135cm approx and a width of 135cm approx. The ground is a warm taupe-beige, calm and earthy rather than cool, so the vivid magenta, green, ochre and black accents read with extra clarity. Its large-scale figural scene brings a sense of movement and period charm without feeling heavy. Care code Q 8 + T 3 and fire code √BM are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this taupe colourway with pale timber, aged brass and plain linens so the pattern remains the focal point. It works especially well in a drawing room, study or occasional chair where the warm neutral base can balance bolder accents.

Use on statement upholstery or elegant curtains to let the lively print stand out.

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.
