About this fabric

The close herringbone is made up of small, directional chevrons, creating gentle vertical movement rather than a strong graphic pattern. In this colourway, cool taupe, olive-grey and darker charcoal flecks combine to give the surface depth without making it appear busy. Woven from 100% pure new wool, Foss Tundra has the substantial, tailored look suited to both curtains and fixed upholstery. The fabric is approximately 137cm wide and is recommended for General Domestic upholstery use, with dry-clean care.

How to use it

Use Foss Tundra to upholster a traditional armchair, sofa or dining seat where its grey-green taupe depth can complement dark timber, aged leather and warm neutral walls. As curtains, its close wool weave will bring a grounded, softly textured finish to rooms built around stone, charcoal or olive accents.

A tightly woven wool herringbone with cool taupe depth, suited to tailored upholstery and softly structured curtains.

Pairs well with

Foss Tundra 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.
