Sumba Ochre

Misc Fabric

Sumba Ochre pairs a crisp interlocking trellis with a pale ground, so the design reads light and orderly rather than heavy. The ochre outline brings just enough warmth to give the pattern depth and definition.

About this fabric

Woven in a 46% cotton, 36% polyester and 18% viscose blend, this fabric has a clean, slightly textured surface that helps the motif stay sharp against the ground. The 23.5cm pattern repeat creates a bold geometric rhythm made up of soft ogee-like shapes, edged in a muted ochre-gold line. At 140cm wide, it is a practical width for both upholstery and drapery applications. The colourway itself feels warm but restrained, with the metallic-leaning ochre outline sitting gently on the pale background rather than shouting for attention. Care code NQT1< should be followed to keep the finish looking its best.

How to use it

Use Sumba Ochre where you want pattern without visual heaviness: it would lift a tailored armchair, blind or cushion scheme beautifully. Its soft gold tone sits well with warm woods, chalky neutrals and aged brass.

A warm ochre outline gives the lattice a tailored, easy-living feel.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Sumba Ochre without fighting it. 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.
