Hickory

Pembroke Carpet

Hickory is a quiet mushroom-taupe colourway with a close, subtly flecked surface. Its restrained tonal variation gives the plain ground more depth than a flat neutral.

About this carpet

Catalogued as Carpet and specified as Wool Twist, Hickory has the dense, compact appearance associated with a close-textured twist construction. The colour sits between warm taupe and muted beige, with fine darker and lighter fibres creating a softly mottled finish across the surface. It reads earthy rather than grey, bringing gentle warmth without becoming noticeably golden. The absence of a visible pattern keeps the emphasis on its tactile grain and nuanced neutral tone.

How to use it

Use Hickory as a warm, grounding neutral alongside chalky creams, natural timber and soft olive accents. Its mushroom-taupe depth also works well with darker brown furnishings where a quiet tonal contrast is needed.

A grounded mushroom-taupe neutral with a fine, even twist texture.

Pairs well with

Hickory 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.
