About this fabric

The fabric appears as a plain weave rather than a printed or patterned design, with a lightly tactile texture visible across the surface. Its pale sand tone sits between warm ivory and gentle beige, while the uneven weave gives the colour a softly shaded, natural depth. No composition, width or performance specification has been supplied for this colourway, so its suitability should be assessed against the intended application.

How to use it

Use M649 Sand to soften a light, neutral scheme where its warm ivory-beige tone can sit comfortably with natural timber, chalky whites and understated textures. Its plain woven appearance also makes it a calm foundation for patterned cushions or more characterful furnishings.

A softly textured sand neutral that brings gentle warmth to upholstery, curtains and layered interiors.

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.
