About this fabric

Across the swatch, the warm sand-beige ground is broken by tiny lighter and darker flecks within the weave. Its dense, fine-scale texture gives the surface a lightly nubby feel, while keeping the overall appearance quiet and even. Subtle changes in the yarn direction create gentle horizontal depth rather than a formal stripe. The muted tone reads naturally and softly, with enough variation to prevent the plain surface from looking flat.

How to use it

Use this warm sand-beige colourway on an armchair, sofa or upholstered headboard where its close texture can add depth without dominating the room. It sits comfortably with chalky whites, pale oak and softly aged leather.

Pair its warm sand-beige weave with chalky whites, natural timber and softly aged leather.

Pairs well with

Sand Flax 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.
