About this fabric

This Kaki colourway sits between warm grey, taupe and olive, with the low-saturation shade giving the intricate pattern a calm, weathered character. Repeated rosettes overlap across the ground, while the fine raised-looking lines catch the light more clearly than the surrounding background. The close, structured surface reads as a versatile mid-weight textile suitable for upholstery or drapery. No performance features are noted for this fabric, so the intended application should be assessed against the project’s requirements.

How to use it

Use the greyed khaki-taupe ground to soften a neutral room, pairing it with warm timber, aged metal and cream upholstery. Its dense rosette pattern works particularly well on a tailored chair, bench or quietly patterned curtain.

Use this muted khaki-taupe colourway to bring quiet depth to tailored upholstery, cushions or full-length curtains.

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.
