Wave Fabric

Wave Terracotta has a warm, earthy terracotta tone that is softened by the closely woven surface. Fine vertical striations run across the swatch, creating quiet movement rather than a bold printed motif.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a muted terracotta, with subtle lighter and darker threads giving the surface a softly variegated depth. Its fine vertical weave creates a delicate linear texture that remains calm and ordered at close range. The even textile structure makes this a versatile choice for upholstery or drapery where warm colour and restrained surface interest are wanted.

How to use it

Use Wave Terracotta to add a grounded, sun-warmed note to a room, pairing it with oat, chalky cream, tobacco or dark timber tones. The fine vertical texture will sit comfortably on a tailored chair, curtain or relaxed Roman blind.

The warm terracotta ground and fine vertical weave bring understated colour and tactile depth to upholstery or drapery.

Pairs well with

Wave Terracotta 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.
