About this fabric
The warm taupe-brown ground has an earthy, amber cast in the photographed light, rather than reading as a cool grey taupe. Irregular black tiger stripes run across the cloth in broken, hand-drawn-looking bands, creating a strong vertical rhythm when made into curtains. The velvet surface appears softly lustrous, with the folds alternating between shaded chocolate tones and lighter highlights. As a curtain fabric, this colourway has a richly theatrical presence without the high saturation of brighter ochre or orange shades.
How to use it
Use this warm taupe-brown colourway as a statement window treatment against timber, tobacco leather or softly neutral walls. Keep surrounding textiles quieter so the black tiger stripes remain the room’s main visual accent.
A richly theatrical taupe velvet curtain with black tiger stripes, suited to rooms that embrace pattern and depth.

Pairs well with
TIGRE Velvet Curtain - Taupe 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.
