About this fabric

This colourway reads as a quiet, earthy neutral, with the lighter beige ground allowing the darker threads to appear as delicate horizontal strokes rather than a strong stripe. Small variations in the woven lines create subtle depth across the surface, while the overall tone remains soft and approachable. The compact texture makes it suitable for either upholstery or drapery where a relaxed, understated finish is wanted. No composition, width or rub-test figures, and no performance features, are supplied for this listing.

How to use it

Use the warm oatmeal tone to soften a neutral sitting room, pairing it with timber, chalky whites and muted taupes. Its fine horizontal texture would work particularly well on a relaxed occasional chair, roman blind or coordinating cushions.

A softly textured oatmeal ground with fine taupe brush marks, bringing understated warmth to upholstery, curtains or cushions.

Edges Brush 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.
