Paolo Hessian is a softly textured plain with a warm cream-beige cast and a gently nubby surface. The colour reads light and natural, with enough depth to feel grounded rather than stark.

About this fabric
This colourway shows a warm hessian-inspired cream, lifted by tiny woven flecks that give the surface a dry, tactile look. As a plain from the Paolo collection, it relies on texture rather than pattern, and the close weave visible in the swatch gives it a reassuringly substantial handle. The fabric is made from 52% polyester and 48% cotton, with a 40,000 Martindale rating and Heavy Domestic usage, making it well suited to upholstery. It is supplied back coated to Cigarette & Match to BS5852, and should be professionally dry cleaned in situ.
How to use it
Use this soft cream tone on sofas, benches or dining chairs where you want a quiet, adaptable neutral with a natural linen-like feel. It pairs especially well with pale woods, oak finishes and muted stone or sage accents.
A soft neutral that brings a calm, natural texture to upholstered pieces and layered interiors.

Paolo Hessian 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.
