No Excuses Caillou is shown here in a warm greige-taupe colourway, with a close woven surface that reads softly mottled rather than flat. Its understated tonal variation gives the cloth gentle depth as the light moves across it.

About this fabric

This Dedar curtain fabric combines a quiet stone-grey base with warmer taupe and beige flecks woven through the surface. The fine, closely textured construction creates a subtle grain, with darker and lighter threads producing a softly weathered appearance. There is no visible motif or repeat, allowing the tonal texture to carry the design. It is catalogued in the Curtain fabrics collection, with no performance features noted.

How to use it

Use the warm greige-taupe tone for full-length curtains in rooms with pale stone, oak or softly coloured upholstery. Its low-contrast woven texture adds depth without introducing a pronounced pattern.

Use this softly mottled greige-taupe cloth for calm, textural curtains that sit comfortably alongside natural wood and stone.

Pairs well with

No Excuses Caillou 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.
