Liso Cacao

Name: Liso Cacao

Liso Cacao is a deep, almost espresso brown with a softly reflective sateen surface. Its close-set vertical texture gives the swatch a quiet linear rhythm, while tiny highlights stop the dark shade from appearing flat.

About this fabric

This Liso Sateen colourway has a warm, near-black cacao tone that reads rich and enveloping rather than reddish or pale. The fine, closely woven vertical texture adds understated definition across the surface, with a gentle sheen that shifts subtly as the light catches it. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Liso Cacao to bring depth to a room through tailored curtains, bench seating or a compact upholstered chair. Its warm espresso tone pairs naturally with aged timber, bronze accents and softly contrasting oatmeal neutrals.

A deep cacao brown with a fine linear weave and restrained sateen sheen, suited to polished upholstery or softly tailored drapery.

Pairs well with

Liso Cacao 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.
