Mundo FabricL9498-03
Jao Linen in this colourway reads as a soft, warm taupe with a gently heathered surface and a quiet matte finish. The plain weave gives it an understated, tailored look rather than a flat solid.

About this fabric
Jao Linen is a plain fabric from Larsen's Mundo collection, with no repeat and an approximate width of 142cm. Its blend of 45% virgin wool, 30% cotton and 25% polyamide gives the cloth a reassuringly tactile handle that suits everyday use. In this swatch, the colour sits between mushroom and greige, with a muted warmth that softens the surface and keeps the tone calm. The fine, even texture catches the light subtly, so the shade feels more layered than a simple flat taupe. With no performance finish noted and fire code √BH, it is a refined, versatile cloth for interiors where a discreet natural tone is wanted.
How to use it
Use this taupe with oak, limestone and brushed metal for a soft contemporary scheme, or pair it with deeper chocolate and charcoal for more contrast. Its restrained warmth makes it especially good for upholstered seating that needs to sit quietly in the room.
A calm, versatile taupe that works neatly across upholstery and curtains.

Pairs well with
Jao Linen 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.
