About this fabric

At 640gsm, this is a notably weighty woven textile with an upholstery-led feel. The swatch shows alternating chocolate-brown and warm ivory checks, with subtly irregular woven edges that soften the geometry. Its 24cm vertical and 27cm horizontal pattern repeat creates a confident medium-scale rhythm across the 135.6cm usable width. A density of 39.5 threads per cm contributes to the close, structured appearance visible in the cloth.

How to use it

Use the deep brown-and-ivory contrast to upholster a statement chair, bench or sofa where the checkerboard can remain the room’s graphic focal point. Pair it with warm wood, cream upholstery plains and dark brown accents to reinforce its rich, grounded tone.

A substantial chocolate-and-ivory check for tailored upholstery and confident statement seating.

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.
