Alderney Fabric

Alderney FR Natural shows a classic checked layout in softly blended taupe, mushroom and natural cream. The woven herringbone texture gives the design a grounded, tailored feel rather than a crisp flat plaid.

About this fabric

This colourway is built from warm neutral grounds with dark charcoal-brown grid lines that sharpen the check without making it feel harsh. The herringbone weave adds visible texture across the whole surface, while the larger blocks keep the pattern readable from a distance. It is supplied in 100% Polyester and has a 140cm width with a 19cm vertical repeat, making the scale of the check easy to plan around on curtains or cushions. The finish reads practical and composed, with enough tonal contrast to sit comfortably in both relaxed country schemes and smarter, more tailored interiors.

How to use it

Use Alderney FR Natural on box cushions, bench seats or Roman blinds where the taupe-and-cream palette can soften timber and stone. It works especially well beside oatmeal upholstery, dark wood and aged brass.

Pair with natural woods and tonal linens for a calm, tailored scheme.

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.
