About this fabric

The close view shows a plain woven textile with a fine crosshatched texture rather than a printed or raised motif. Warm fawn, muted beige and soft taupe tones blend together to give the colourway a mellow, grounded depth. The weave catches the light subtly, preventing the otherwise quiet surface from appearing flat. Its balanced, mid-weight appearance makes it suitable for upholstery or drapery applications.

How to use it

Use Town Fawn to warm a neutral room where a soft beige-taupe foundation is preferred over cooler grey. It would sit comfortably alongside natural timber, ivory textiles and other muted earth tones.

A quietly textured fawn-taupe weave that brings warmth without a strong pattern.

Pairs well with

Town Fawn 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.
