Bowler Wood
Paxton FabricL9238-05
Bowler Wood has a quietly tailored herringbone that reads as warm wood-brown with a soft, textural finish. The small-scale zigzag gives the fabric a refined, rhythmic surface without feeling busy.

About this fabric
Woven in 43% Linen, 21% Wool, 18% Cotton, 7% Bamboo, 6% Polyester and 5% Polyamide, Bowler Wood has the tactile, grounded feel you expect from a mixed natural fibre fabric. The small herringbone repeat, set at approximately V 1cm / H 6cm, creates a neat directional grain that is visible but understated across the cloth. At approximately 134cm wide, it is a practical upholstery and curtain fabric for schemes that want texture rather than pattern contrast. The wood-brown colouring is softly warmed with beige and taupe undertones, giving the surface an easy, lived-in depth rather than a flat tan finish.
How to use it
Use Bowler Wood on a sofa, bench or headboard where the herringbone can add subtle structure in a warm neutral room. It pairs especially well with oak, leather and chalky paint colours, bringing a smart, grounded tone to the scheme.
A tailored herringbone in a warm wood tone that works beautifully across upholstery and drapery schemes.

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