About this fabric

This colourway reads as a warm barley beige, with subtle tonal flecks in the weave that soften the overall surface. It is a plain from the Mythica collection, made from 100% polyester and suitable for general domestic use. With a Martindale rating of 40,000, it has the practical durability expected of a fabric that can be used confidently in everyday interiors. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and after care is professional dry clean in situ. The colour feels grounded and easy to live with, sitting neatly between sand and taupe without looking too yellow or too grey.

How to use it

Use this barley tone on a tailored sofa, dining chairs or bench seating where you want a neutral that still feels warm. It pairs especially well with oak, putty, chalk white and muted olive accents.

A quietly versatile neutral that works well across upholstery and soft furnishings.

Pairs well with

Mythica Barley 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.
