Mimosa Buff is a softly worked plain with a warm buff-beige cast and a gently mottled surface. The finish reads calm and low-key, with enough texture to keep the colour from feeling flat.

About this fabric

This colourway sits in a muted buff-beige range, with pale honey and sand tones that shift subtly across the surface as the light moves. The plain design and light tonal variation give it a relaxed, lived-in look rather than a crisp flat finish. Made from 100% polyester and rated for heavy domestic use, it also offers a 40,000 Martindale rub test, making it a practical choice for busy seating. Supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, it is suitable where a performance-backed upholstery fabric is required, and professional dry clean in situ is recommended.

How to use it

Use Mimosa Buff on sofas, loose covers or dining chairs when you want a warm neutral that feels softer than grey. Its sanded beige tone works especially well with oak, linen whites and brushed brass.

A softly textured buff that brings warmth without overpowering a room.

Pairs well with

Mimosa Buff 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.
