About this fabric

This Cormar Pimlico colourway is catalogued as Carpet and belongs to the Wool Loop category. The dense, small-scale loops create a fine pebble-like texture rather than a graphic motif, while flecks of deeper grey add gentle depth to the taupe ground. The shade sits between warm grey and softened beige, reading natural and understated rather than cool or stark. Its substantial, closely woven appearance makes it best suited to upholstery applications where tactile texture is part of the finish.

How to use it

Use Wild Rice on a relaxed armchair, footstool or upholstered bench alongside warm timber, limestone and softly aged leather. Its taupe-grey tone also works as a quiet grounding neutral with oatmeal, olive or charcoal accents.

A quietly textured taupe-grey loop with a warm, grounded feel for relaxed upholstery schemes.

Pairs well with

Wild Rice 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.
