Sisal Parchment

Name: Sisal Parchment
Brand: Mark Alexander

Sisal Parchment has a warm, muted parchment-taupe tone, shown here with the finely striated surface characteristic of grasscloth. Its understated horizontal texture brings gentle depth without introducing a visible motif.

About this fabric

The close-up reveals closely spaced horizontal lines with subtle shifts in density and tone across the surface. The parchment base reads warmer than a cool grey, while the taupe shading gives the colour enough depth to avoid appearing flat or stark. As a wallpaper from Mark Alexander’s Grasscloth collection, this colourway is defined visually by its natural-looking woven texture rather than a printed pattern. The restrained surface allows the softly varied colour to remain the main feature.

How to use it

Use Sisal Parchment on walls where a warm, quiet backdrop is needed, particularly alongside natural timber, cream upholstery or softly aged stone. Its muted taupe cast can also temper brighter accents without competing with them.

Use this softly textured parchment-taupe wallpaper to add quiet warmth and natural depth to a room.

Pairs well with

Sisal Parchment 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.
