About this fabric

Catalogued as a Fabric in Dedar’s Upholstery fabrics collection, Upupa Paille has a closely woven surface suited to upholstered applications. The small diagonal motif forms a subtle, continuous zigzag across the swatch rather than a bold graphic repeat. Warm ivory and pale straw threads create gentle tonal variation, while the raised weave catches the light across the pattern. The overall effect is neat and tactile, with enough visual interest to add texture without overpowering a piece of furniture.

How to use it

Pair Upupa Paille with warm white, oat and natural timber for a light, quietly layered scheme. Its straw-ivory tone also works well on a tailored armchair, upholstered headboard or compact ottoman where the small zigzag can be appreciated up close.

Use its warm ivory tone and tactile zigzag texture to bring quiet pattern to tailored seating, headboards or ottomans.

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.
