Wicker Wallcovering Loam

Name: Wicker Wallcovering Loam
Brand: Mark Alexander

Wicker Wallcovering Loam has a muted olive-brown ground with the earthy, weathered character of loam. Its close woven surface is visibly layered with fine horizontal and vertical threads, creating gentle tonal movement across the wallcovering.

About this fabric

Catalogued as wallpaper, this Mark Alexander design presents a dense, irregular weave in softened olive, brown and grey-green tones. The fine wicker-like texture is not flat: lighter threads catch across the surface while deeper brown flecks give the colourway a grounded, shaded depth. Its subdued palette reads warm and natural rather than bright, with the woven structure remaining the main visual feature.

How to use it

Use Loam across a study, bedroom or living room where its muted olive-brown tone can sit alongside dark timber, aged brass, linen and stone. The quiet weave adds texture without introducing a strong graphic pattern.

The earthy olive-brown tone and fine woven texture bring quiet depth to walls, pairing naturally with timber, stone and softly aged neutrals.

Pairs well with

Wicker Wallcovering Loam 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.
