About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric in the Misc collection by Moons, 1796/PDW2 presents a tight, regular herringbone weave with a small-scale chevron rhythm. The taupe-brown colouring sits between warm brown and cool grey, creating a softened, understated depth rather than a strongly saturated finish. Its dense-looking construction reads as particularly well suited to upholstery, where the directional weave can add definition to clean-lined forms. No composition, width, rub test or performance features are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this muted taupe-brown colourway on a sofa, dining chair or headboard where its fine herringbone adds smart texture without dominating the room. Pair it with warm timber, aged brass and softly contrasting creams or charcoal tones.

A dense taupe-brown herringbone weave that brings subtle tailored texture to upholstered seating.

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.
