About this fabric

Gobi Ochre is a warm ochre-brown ground, threaded with darker brown and subdued olive flecks that give the surface a softly peppered depth. Its compact, even weave is clearly visible in the close-up, with a dry, tactile look rather than a glossy pile. The supplied listing identifies it as a fabric and records no performance features; no composition, width or rub-test data is supplied. The restrained tonal variation keeps the colour grounded while preventing the plain weave from looking flat.

How to use it

Pair this muted ochre-brown colourway with natural timber, aged brass and warm neutrals for a quietly layered scheme. Its low-contrast texture would work equally well on tailored upholstery or relaxed curtains where a little visual depth is wanted.

Use this warm, finely textured ochre weave to add quiet depth to seating, cushions or full-length curtains.

Gobi Ochre 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.
