Abaca Powder

Name: Abaca Powder
Brand: Mark Alexander

Abaca Powder reads as a pale, powdery beige with a gentle cool grey-green cast. Across the swatch, fine horizontal fibres create quiet tonal movement rather than a pronounced printed pattern.

About this fabric

Catalogued as wallpaper, Abaca Powder has a finely striated grasscloth appearance with closely spaced horizontal lines visible across the surface. Its pale powder-beige tone is softened by delicate grey-green and natural straw-like variations, giving the colour a calm, lightly weathered depth. The texture remains understated, with the changing fibre direction catching the light in narrow, uneven bands. No performance features are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Abaca Powder on walls where a pale, muted backdrop is wanted without a flat painted finish. Its powder-beige and soft grey-green undertones would sit comfortably with chalky whites, light woods and similarly quiet natural tones.

Pale powder-beige grasscloth texture with fine horizontal striations for quietly layered walls.

Pairs well with

Abaca Powder 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.
