Kobi Natural is a quietly textured plain in a soft oatmeal cream, with a gentle matte look that feels light and pared-back. The close weave gives the surface a subtle grain rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

Kobi Natural from the Kobi collection by J Brown is a plain fabric made from 100% polyester and specified for heavy domestic use. It carries a 40,000 Martindale rub test, making it suitable for everyday seating where a hard-wearing finish is needed. Visually, this colourway reads as a pale oatmeal cream with a faint warm undertone and a softly speckled weave that catches the light without looking shiny. The fabric is supplied back coated to cigarette and match to BS5852, and other treatments are available upon request. Professional dry clean in situ is recommended, with further care instructions in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this natural cream on sofas, banquettes or headboards where you want a bright but understated base. It pairs especially well with warm wood, chalky paint colours and deeper accent cushions for a layered, calm scheme.

A calm neutral that layers easily with timber, linen and stone finishes.

Pairs well with

Kobi Natural 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.
