Osaka Muscovado

Osaka Fabric06

Osaka Muscovado is a deep cocoa brown plain with a softly variegated, brushed look that gives the surface extra warmth and shadow. In the folds it reads darker and almost espresso-toned, with lighter caramel highlights catching on the texture.

About this fabric

This colourway from the Osaka collection is made from 100% polyester and is specified for heavy domestic use, with a 40,000 Martindale rating for upholstery durability. The plain weave visible here has a tactile, slightly napped surface that softens the rich brown base into a mottled cocoa and coffee finish. The back-coated fabric is supplied to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and professional dry clean in situ is recommended for care. Its warm depth and durable handle make it ideal for seating that needs a grounded, tailored look without appearing flat.

How to use it

Use Muscovado on a sofa, occasional chair or banquette where its dark warm brown can anchor lighter walls and timber finishes. It pairs especially well with tan leather, tobacco velvet and muted brass accents.

A rich, textural neutral that brings depth to tailored seating and works well with warm wood tones.

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.
