About this fabric

The ground reads as a balanced mushroom shade, sitting between warm grey and subdued brown, while tiny lighter and darker yarns create a softly granular finish. Its close woven texture catches the light in small points rather than presenting as a flat solid. At approximately 137cm wide, Orta is specified for curtains and fixed upholstery, with Contract and General Domestic upholstery grades. The composition is 43% linen, 51% viscose and 6% polyester, and care is by dry cleaning.

How to use it

Pair the mushroom taupe with chalky creams, weathered oak and muted olive for a calm, layered scheme. Its restrained brown-grey depth also works well on a tailored chair or full-length curtain where the woven texture can be seen at close range.

Use this softly mottled mushroom tone to bring quiet warmth and tactile depth to upholstery or curtains.

Orta Mushroom 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.
