About this fabric

The warm taupe ground gives this colourway a calm, earthy depth rather than a bright or strongly contrasting effect. Its pressed surface forms irregular rectangular scales, with finer pebble-like sections running in vertical strips across the image. Light catches the raised pattern gently, creating tonal variation without a glossy appearance. Catalogued as a fabric in Kirkby Design’s Hideveganleathers collection, it is best read as an upholstery-led textile based on its substantial, structured visual surface.

How to use it

Pair this warm taupe colourway with dark timber, softly contrasting stone and restrained metalwork so the crocodile emboss remains the defining detail on a chair, headboard or sofa.

Use the muted taupe tone on tailored upholstery where the embossed crocodile texture can remain the main detail.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Croc Eco Monel without fighting it. 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.
