About this fabric

The colour reads as a gentle parchment beige, with subtle taupe-grey variation in the weave rather than a flat, uniform surface. Composed of 52% viscose, 42% linen and 6% polyester, it has a balanced textile texture that sits comfortably between crisp linen and smoother viscose. At 137 cm wide, it is specified for curtains, loose upholstery, fixed upholstery and bedspreads. A 40,000 Martindale rub test supports its use on upholstered pieces, while care is restricted to professional dry cleaning; do not wash, bleach or iron.

How to use it

Use Canyon Parchment to soften a timber-framed chair, sofa or bedhead, where its warm neutral tone will sit naturally with oak, stone and muted taupe. Made into full-length curtains or a bedspread, the fine woven texture adds depth without introducing a strong pattern.

A softly textured parchment neutral that brings warmth to upholstery, curtains and bedspreads.

Pairs well with

Canyon Parchment 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.
