About this fabric

The surface is densely textured, with tiny rounded markings that create the characteristic shagreen effect rather than a printed motif. Its taupe-brown colour sits in a warm, earthy middle ground, while slightly darker and lighter areas keep the finish from looking flat. The close texture reads as a substantial upholstery fabric in this swatch image. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Pair this restrained taupe-brown colourway with warm timber, camel leather and chalky neutrals for a grounded scheme. Its low-contrast pebble texture also works well on a tailored chair or sofa where surface detail can be appreciated up close.

Use its muted taupe-brown tone on upholstered seating where the fine shagreen texture can add quiet depth without a strong pattern.

Shagreen Eco Asteroid 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.
