About this fabric
The swatch presents a medium-depth nut brown with subtle rusty warmth rather than a cool or grey cast. Fine woven threads create a quiet crosshatch effect across the surface, with slight tonal variation that becomes more visible in the lighter areas of the image. The plain construction keeps the colourway visually calm while the texture prevents it from appearing flat. No performance features are noted for this exact fabric.
How to use it
Use Flax Nut to add grounded warmth to an upholstered chair, sofa or curtain scheme, particularly alongside natural timber, oatmeal neutrals and muted terracotta accents. Its earthy brown tone works well where a room needs depth without a strong pattern.
A warm nut-brown plain weave that brings earthy depth to upholstery and soft furnishings.

Pairs well with
Flax Nut 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.
