About this fabric

The fabric reads as warm ivory rather than stark white, with subtle beige and cream variation across the surface. A small-scale, uneven weave combines fine horizontal lines with occasional raised slubs and softly broken flecks. The texture catches the light in small changes of tone, keeping the pale colour from appearing flat. Its visibly substantial woven character makes it particularly well suited to upholstery.

How to use it

Use Cardamome - Écru on a sofa, armchair or headboard where its warm ivory tone can soften a room without becoming bright white. Pair it with natural timber, chalky walls and deeper taupe or olive accents to bring out the weave’s gentle contrast.

A warm ivory ground and uneven woven texture bring quiet depth to upholstered seating.

Cardamome - Écru 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.
