Carrera Mushroom

Leon Fabric

Carrera Mushroom is a quietly tailored plain cotton with a soft, even surface and a warm mushroom-taupe cast. Its muted depth gives the fabric a calm, grounded look rather than a flat grey finish.

About this fabric

Woven in 100% cotton and measuring 140cm wide, Carrera Mushroom is a practical plain fabric with no pattern repeat, making it straightforward to cut and use. The cloth reads as a warm mushroom taupe with subtle brown-grey undertones, and the fine weave gives the surface a lightly textured, matte appearance. In this colourway the tone feels understated and slightly earthy, with enough depth to hold interest without dominating a room. The AQW1 care code supports everyday domestic use where a simple, easy-to-style cotton is wanted.

How to use it

Use Carrera Mushroom on a sofa, bench, or loose cover where its restrained taupe tone can soften timber, linen, and stone finishes. It also works well for relaxed curtains or Roman blinds when you want a neutral that feels warmer than grey.

A versatile earthy neutral that sits quietly across both soft furnishing and upholstery schemes.

Pairs well with

Carrera Mushroom 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.
