About this fabric

The closely spaced chevrons are formed from small lighter and darker yarns, creating a compact, tactile-looking surface. Rope sits between taupe and brown, with a gently rustic warmth rather than a cool grey cast. The dense woven appearance makes this colourway particularly convincing on upholstered furniture, where the small-scale pattern can read as texture from a distance. No performance features are noted in the supplied information.

How to use it

Use Rope on a classic armchair, dining chair or compact sofa where its warm taupe-brown tone can sit comfortably with timber, leather and muted neutral upholstery. Pair it with cream or oatmeal textiles to bring out the lighter flecks in the herringbone.

A dense, understated herringbone weave that brings warm taupe-brown 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.
