Serpa Ochre

Plains & Semi Plains Fabric

Serpa Ochre has a softly mottled, stone-like surface that reads as warm and quietly textured. The palette sits between pale cream and muted ochre, giving it a gentle golden glow rather than a strong yellow hit.

About this fabric

This fabric is a textile, not wallpaper, with a 64% polyester and 36% cotton composition that gives the cloth a practical woven handle. At 137cm wide with a 35.5cm pattern repeat, it is suited to projects where the repeat needs to be planned carefully across larger runs. The visible surface is a fine, irregular abstract texture, with small flecks of ochre and ivory that soften the overall look. Serpa Ochre feels warmer and lighter than a deep gold, and the broken finish helps it sit comfortably in schemes that need colour without heaviness. Care instructions: AQW1<.

How to use it

Use this ochre colourway on a tailored armchair, bench seat, or scatter cushions to bring warmth to pale timber, linen and natural stone. It also works well as drapery in a room that needs a gentle golden lift rather than a saturated statement.

A warm ochre tone that adds texture without overpowering a room.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Serpa 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.
