About this fabric

Drayton Chocolate has a deep, warm chocolate-brown ground with a restrained russet cast, rather than a flat near-black brown. The close, fine weave creates a softly grained surface, with subtle tonal variation where the light crosses the cloth. Composed of 34% viscose, 32% cotton, 17% linen and 17% polyester, it is 137 cm (53.82") wide. Rated at 40,000 Martindale, it is specified for curtains, loose upholstery and bedspreads; care is professional dry cleaning only, with no washing, bleaching or ironing.

How to use it

Use this warm brown in a library, snug or bedroom where its russet depth can sit comfortably alongside tobacco leather, walnut timber and quiet neutral walls. As curtains or a bedspread, it adds a grounded, softly textured layer without introducing a visible pattern.

The warm russet-chocolate tone brings depth to upholstered pieces, curtains and bedspreads.

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.
