Tigre Sand

Pelham FabricF4861-04

Tigre Sand has a dry, sun-warmed look, with pale sand ground tones and a darker camel-brown motif laid in a vertical chevron rhythm. The repeating pattern reads as tailored and elegant rather than bold, with a softly textured surface visible throughout the swatch.

About this fabric

Part of the Pelham collection by Colefax and Fowler, this fabric is composed of 82% viscose and 18% polyester and has an approximate width of 142cm, with a vertical repeat of 32cm and horizontal repeat of 18cm. The visible colourway combines beige, camel and warm brown in a fine, animal-inspired leaf or feather stripe that creates movement without high contrast. The overall effect is dry and earthy, with enough tonal depth to feel grounded but still light on the eye. With no performance features noted, it suits decorative schemes where the pattern and handle are the focus rather than heavy-duty use.

How to use it

Use Tigre Sand on a pared-back chair, cushion or blind where its warm beige ground can lift walnut, oak or pale painted wood. It also works well with linen, tobacco leather and muted metallics for a quiet, tailored scheme.

A warm neutral with a refined animal-inspired repeat, ideal for soft upholstery or tailored curtains.

Pairs well with

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