About this fabric

Part of the Cayman collection by J Brown, this plain fabric is made from 100% polyester and is specified for general domestic use. It has a 25,000 Martindale rating and is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, with other treatments available on request. Visually, the surface shows a fine, even weave with a soft, cloth-like texture and a muted bark brown tone lifted by a faint olive cast. The overall effect is understated and practical, with enough depth in the shade to feel refined rather than flat.

How to use it

Use Cayman Bark on sofas, dining chairs or banquettes where a dark earthy neutral will hide everyday wear. It pairs well with natural woods, tobacco leathers and warm stone shades for a calm, tailored room.

A quietly tailored bark-toned neutral that suits clean-lined upholstery and layered earthy schemes.

Pairs well with

Cayman Bark 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.
