Dunnock
Chennai Carpet
Dunnock is a close-textured woven textile in a warm taupe-grey, with fine stone and brown flecks distributed across its surface. The dense weave gives the colour a softly mottled, tactile character rather than a flat block of grey.

About this fabric
The face is built from compact, irregular yarns that form a subtle grid-like structure, with lighter flecks catching across the darker taupe ground. Its warm grey tone sits between stone, mushroom and soft brown, creating noticeable depth at close range without a strong motif. As a catalogued Carpet textile with a dense visible construction, it reads as an upholstery-oriented cloth rather than a fine, fluid drapery fabric. No composition, width, rub-test or additional performance features have been supplied for this exact fabric.
How to use it
Use Dunnock on a generously shaped armchair, sofa or footstool where its warm taupe-grey colouring can soften darker timber and coordinate naturally with stone, oatmeal and charcoal accents. Keep surrounding patterns restrained so the close, flecked weave provides the room’s quiet texture.
A dense, softly variegated taupe-grey weave suited to relaxed upholstered seating and understated interiors.
Pairs well with
Dunnock 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.
