Khari Vellum

Name: Khari Vellum
Brand: Mark Alexander

Khari Vellum combines a pale vellum ground with softly defined taupe-grey geometric columns. Its vertical rhythm is distinctive, while the close tonal contrast keeps the overall impression calm and light.

About this fabric

The design alternates jagged, diamond-like tracery with irregular horizontal ladder bars, arranged in narrow vertical bands across the fabric. The warm cream ground gives the colourway a gentle, parchment-like character, while the taupe-grey marks add subdued definition rather than a hard graphic contrast. A lightly mottled surface softens the edges of the pattern and creates tactile depth in the pale tones. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Khari Vellum where its warm cream base can brighten a room without feeling stark, such as relaxed seating, Roman blinds or full-length curtains. Pair it with chalky neutrals, pale timber and muted taupe accents to echo the colourway’s softened vertical pattern.

A softly weathered cream-and-taupe geometric stripe that brings quiet rhythm to upholstery or drapery.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Khari Vellum without fighting it. 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.
