About this fabric

The design is a medium-scale geometric check, with nested darker brown rectangular blocks sitting between the lighter intersecting lines. Its dense woven appearance reads as structured rather than fluid, making it particularly suitable for upholstery. The colourway combines deep brown, earthy rust and muted cream, with the darker areas absorbing light while the pale grid remains clearly defined. No performance features are noted for this supplied colourway.

How to use it

Use this warm brown and rust check on a tailored armchair, bench or sofa, pairing it with tobacco leather, dark timber and aged brass. The cream grid can be echoed through oatmeal upholstery or warm neutral walls without losing the pattern’s graphic definition.

A warm, structured grid in deep brown, rust and cream for tailored upholstery with a modern, architectural feel.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Caledonian Ganache 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.
