Carrera Almond is a pale almond cream with a gentle, softly mottled surface that reads clean and calm. The finish has a faint horizontal texture that gives the plain a little movement without disturbing its quiet tone.

About this fabric

This colourway sits in a warm-leaning cream family, with the almond note visible as an understated softness rather than a strong beige cast. The 100% polyester construction and contract usage make it a practical choice for demanding interiors, while the 80,000 Martindale rating points to excellent durability for busy settings. Its back-coated fire performance to Cigarette & Match to BS5852 adds another layer of specification for commercial projects. Visually, the fabric looks smooth at first glance but reveals delicate slubs and fine horizontal striations that catch the light and keep the surface from feeling flat.

How to use it

Use Carrera Almond to soften darker wood, bronze or charcoal pieces, where its creamy tone will lift the room without feeling stark. It works especially well on tailored upholstery or understated drapery when you want a pale, textural neutral with a polished finish.

A soft almond cream that keeps schemes light and versatile with a quietly textural finish.

Pairs well with

Carrera Almond 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.
