About this fabric

Apache Brown has a warm, earthy brown tone with a slight taupe cast visible across the swatch. A fine diagonal micro-weave breaks the colour into closely spaced light and dark threads, giving the surface quiet movement rather than a flat finish. The dense-looking construction and restrained pattern make it best suited to upholstery where a tailored, understated result is wanted. No performance features or further specification data are noted in the supplied record.

How to use it

Use Apache Brown on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its warm brown tone can anchor lighter neutrals. Pair it with oat, stone and muted olive accents to bring out the weave’s earthy depth.

Pairs well with

Apache Brown 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.
