About this fabric
The small-scale herringbone is clearly visible across the swatch, giving the cloth a neat, directional texture rather than a flat plain finish. Its taupe-brown colour is subdued and earthy, with greyed threads tempering the warmth and adding gentle depth as the weave catches the light. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification, so the fabric’s character here comes from its dense-looking woven texture and understated colour contrast. The tailored pattern is particularly well suited to upholstery where a quiet, refined surface is wanted.
How to use it
Use this muted taupe-brown colourway on a structured armchair, headboard or sofa, pairing it with warm timber, aged metal and soft cream textiles. Its grey undertone also sits comfortably with stone, mushroom and charcoal accents.
A fine taupe-brown herringbone that brings quiet texture and tailored depth to upholstery.

Pairs well with
A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside 1796/U40 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.
