About this fabric

This Clay colourway reads as a muted clay-brown rather than a bright red or orange terracotta, giving the wall a softly weathered depth. Close-set horizontal and vertical lines create a restrained crosshatch, while occasional pale angled strokes interrupt the regular field. Light falls gently across the surface, revealing tonal variation without making the pattern loud. As a wallpaper, it is shown covering the dining-room wall, where the brown ground complements the dark wood table, stone flooring and deep brown seating.

How to use it

Use this warm clay-brown wallcovering behind a dining table or in a snug, pairing it with dark timber, aged ceramics and stone for a calm, layered interior.

Pair its warm clay-brown depth with dark timber, stone and deep brown upholstery for a grounded, textural scheme.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Accent Wallcovering Clay without fighting it. 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.
