About this fabric

The olive-taupe ground reads warm and subdued, while the lighter threads form a broken basket-like grid across the face of the cloth. Uneven line density and small shifts in tone make the surface feel tactile rather than sharply printed. Its mid-weight appearance makes it suitable for either upholstered pieces or fuller window treatments. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Millstone on a relaxed armchair, bench or pair of curtains where its muted olive cast can sit comfortably with natural wood, stone, cream and warm grey. The pale crosshatch adds quiet pattern without dominating a room.

A softly weathered woven check that brings muted olive-taupe depth to upholstery or drapery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Basket - Millstone 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.
