Chapeau Taupe is a muted grey-brown textile with a softly mottled, almost flecked surface. Its even, close texture gives the colour a gently shaded depth rather than a flat solid appearance.

About this fabric

The face of this fabric reads as a warm taupe, balanced between grey and brown, with fine tonal variation visible across the swatch. Its compact, substantial-looking texture makes it feel naturally upholstery-led rather than like a fine, fluid drapery cloth. The restrained colour and low-contrast surface give it a smart, quietly tailored character. No composition, width, rub-test or other performance specification is supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Chapeau Taupe on a tailored armchair, sofa or ottoman where its warm grey-brown tone can soften darker timber, stone and charcoal accents without introducing a strong pattern.

Use this softly mottled warm taupe to bring quiet depth to tailored seating and other upholstered pieces.

Pairs well with

Chapeau Taupe 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.
