About this fabric

This Rosslyn Park colourway reads as a warm, dark brown rather than a flat solid, with fine grey-brown and reddish fibres creating a heathered, peppered appearance. The compact weave has a subtly nubby texture that catches the light unevenly across the surface. Its restrained colouring keeps the fabric relaxed and natural, while the depth of tone gives upholstered forms a grounded presence. No performance features are recorded in the supplied specification for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Heather Bracken to upholster a reading chair, sofa or bench where its dark earthy tone can sit comfortably with walnut, oak, tan leather and softly aged metals. Balance the depth with oatmeal, stone or warm cream textiles.

Use this deep heathered brown on an armchair, sofa or footstool alongside warm timber, aged leather and muted earthy tones.

Pairs well with

Heather Bracken 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.
