About this fabric

This Mark Alexander Grasscloth wallpaper is presented in a warm, greyed sepia taupe rather than a strong brown, so its appearance remains understated and natural. Fine horizontal fibres run across the surface, while faint vertical variation and scattered darker flecks keep the plain field from looking flat. Light catches the raised strands softly, creating a dry, tactile effect without a pronounced motif. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this exact colourway.

How to use it

Use Abaca Sepia across a study, bedroom or softly lit living space where its warm taupe tone can sit alongside timber, linen and aged brass. Its restrained horizontal texture also makes a calm backdrop for layered neutral furnishings.

Use this softly weathered taupe wallpaper to bring quiet warmth and fine woven texture to walls.

Pairs well with

Abaca Sepia 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.
