Lux Boucle Elephant is a softly speckled boucle with a calm mushroom-taupe appearance and a close, tactile surface. Its low-contrast finish gives the fabric a quiet, upholstered feel rather than a flat plain.

About this fabric

This colourway reads as a muted taupe with warm grey and beige undertones, and the tiny looped texture catches the light with a dry, gently nubbly effect. The composition is 94% polyester and 6% cotton, giving it a practical upholstery-friendly handle, while the 140cm width makes it straightforward for larger furniture projects. With a pattern repeat of 0cm, it has the look of a clean plain, but the boucle structure adds depth and softness across the surface. The Elephant shade is especially useful if you want a neutral that feels a little warmer and more grounded than a cool grey.

How to use it

Use it on sofas, armchairs or ottomans where a soft taupe neutral can balance timber, stone and muted colour schemes. It sits comfortably in relaxed interiors, adding texture without competing with patterned cushions or wallpaper.

A subtle neutral that brings a calm, textural finish to modern seating.

Pairs well with

Lux Boucle Elephant 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.
