Sahara Iii Fabric

Sahara Iii Tuffet is a softly shaded taupe fabric with a calm, understated presence. Its close weave creates a delicate linear texture across the surface, rather than a printed motif.

About this fabric

The colour sits between beige and taupe, with warm grey-brown depth that keeps the swatch feeling muted rather than pale or yellow. Fine vertical and horizontal threads form a subtle crosshatch, giving the plain surface gentle visual movement when viewed up close. The even woven structure reads as suitably substantial for upholstered furniture, while the restrained colour keeps the overall effect relaxed and quietly refined.

How to use it

Use this warm taupe colourway on a sofa, headboard or occasional chair where its soft neutral depth can anchor cream, timber and stone tones. The fine texture adds interest without competing with patterned cushions or stronger accent colours.

A warm taupe ground with a fine woven texture, well suited to understated upholstered furniture.

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.
