Cricket Fossil

Volume Fabric

Cricket Fossil is a softly shaded taupe fabric with a distinctive vertical pattern of braided, cable-like forms. Its close tonal contrast gives the surface a calm, tactile depth rather than a strongly graphic effect.

About this fabric

This colourway is catalogued as a fabric, with no performance features noted in the supplied information. The visible weave combines narrow raised-looking braided columns with slim, pointed chevron lines, all set against a warm fossil-taupe ground. Subtle darker threads outline the pattern and create gentle shadowing across the vertically organised surface.

How to use it

Use Cricket Fossil to upholster a relaxed armchair, dining seat or ottoman where its warm taupe tone can soften darker timber and sit comfortably alongside cream, stone and muted brown accents.

A warm fossil-taupe woven texture that brings quiet depth to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

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.
