M642 Sepia
Odyssey Fabric
M642 Sepia has a softly weathered sepia-taupe ground, crossed by fine vertical slubs that give the surface a natural textile irregularity. Small, pale linear motifs are spaced across it like understated woven marks.

About this fabric
The warm beige-taupe colour reads softly rather than darkly, with subtle tonal variation across the woven surface. Fine vertical striations add a lightly nubby, linen-like character, while the small ivory horizontal motifs provide restrained contrast. The pattern is evenly scattered, leaving plenty of calm ground between each mark. No performance features are noted for this fabric.
How to use it
Use M642 Sepia where a room needs warmth without a strong colour statement: it would sit comfortably on a relaxed chair, Roman blind or pair of curtains alongside chalky whites and pale timber.
Use the warm sepia ground to soften pale woods, chalky neutrals and understated natural schemes.

Pairs well with
M642 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.
