About this fabric

Part of the Mimosa collection by J Brown, this plain design comes in a choice of 27 colourways and is woven in 100% polyester. It is rated for Heavy Domestic use and has a Martindale count of 40,000, making it well suited to everyday seating. The swatch shows a warm burnt rust ground with darker, shadowy flecks that soften the overall effect and add visual movement without a pattern. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and professional dry clean in situ is recommended, with further care guidance available in the pattern book.

How to use it

Use this rust colour on an accent chair, banquette or headboard where its warm, dusky tone can anchor the room. It pairs especially well with oak, leather, olive, and worn brass for a grounded, autumnal scheme.

A warm rust tone that brings depth and easy warmth to tailored upholstery.

Pairs well with

Mimosa Rust 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.
