About this fabric

The truffle shade sits between taupe and soft brown, with a restrained depth that reads warm without becoming dark or saturated. A tiny, closely packed weave is visible across the swatch, creating subtle tonal variation as the light moves over the surface. Weighing 387 gsm with 27.6 threads per centimetre, this is a substantial textile suited to upholstery. The 143 cm usable width and zero-centimetre horizontal and vertical pattern repeats make the plain surface straightforward to position on furniture.

How to use it

Use this warm mushroom taupe on a sofa, dining chair or headboard where its quiet depth can anchor cream, aged timber and brushed metal. Pair it with chalky neutrals for a soft tailored scheme rather than a high-contrast look.

Pairs well with

Allegra Truffle 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.
