About this fabric

The image shows a dense, short-textured carpet surface with a small-scale, irregular mélange of brown, taupe and soft cream fibres. The warm brown ground gives the colourway depth, while the pale flecks catch the light and prevent it from reading as a flat dark shade. Catalogued as a Carpet and listed with an Easy Clean specification, Brownstone has a practical character suited to hard-working interiors. Its substantial surface reads more like a durable upholstery textile than a fine, fluid curtain cloth.

How to use it

Use Brownstone on a generously scaled armchair, footstool or bench where its warm, mottled brown tone can add understated depth. Pair it with oatmeal, stone and dark wood, or introduce rust and aged brass for a warmer scheme.

Use this warm, flecked brown surface to bring depth and a practical, quietly rustic character to upholstered pieces.

Brownstone 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.
