About this fabric

The small mustard dots are arranged in closely spaced horizontal rows across an ivory ground, with the olive cast of the yellow adding depth rather than brightness. At 420 gsm and 60 threads per centimetre, the cloth has a substantial, closely made feel suited to upholstery. It has a 138 cm usable width and a standard length of 30 metres. The pattern has an 11.6 cm vertical repeat and a listed 0 cm horizontal repeat, keeping the dotted rhythm easy to position across a design.

How to use it

Use this warm mustard-neutral colourway on a reading chair, bench or tailored seat where its fine dotted scale can add interest without dominating. Pair it with chalky ivory, walnut and muted olive accents to draw out the shade visible in the weave.

A substantial, finely textured mustard-and-ivory dotted cloth for tailored upholstery.

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