Kobi Ochre

Kobi Fabric05

Kobi Ochre is a rich, warm plain with a tightly woven surface that reads as golden ochre in the light. The finish has a soft, lived-in depth rather than a flat yellow tone.

About this fabric

Part of the Kobi collection by J Brown, this colourway is a plain fabric in 100% polyester with a Heavy Domestic usage rating and a 40,000 Martindale result. The swatch shows a compact weave with a fine, slightly slubby texture that gives the ochre ground subtle movement across the surface. Its colour sits between mustard and amber, with a warm gold cast that feels grounded and inviting rather than bright. Supplied back coated to cigarette & match to BS5852, it is a practical choice where a smarter upholstery finish is needed.

How to use it

Use this ochre tone on an occasional chair, banquette or headboard to add warmth without introducing pattern. It pairs well with walnut, tan leather and muted greens, where the golden surface can lift the room.

A warm ochre plain that brings depth and richness to tailored seating.

Pairs well with

Kobi Ochre 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.
