Holmes - Ochre is a warm, earthy plaid with broad ochre-brown fields and layered dark lines. Its closely woven surface gives the check a soft, tactile depth rather than a flat graphic appearance.

About this fabric

This fabric is built around broad ochre-brown checks, crossed by charcoal, olive-brown and lighter tan lines that create a softly weathered windowpane effect. The dense weave looks gently brushed, allowing the lighter stripes to catch the light against the deeper brown ground. With its substantial visual weight and muted, earthy contrast, this colourway reads as a relaxed upholstery textile with a classic country feel.

How to use it

Use Holmes - Ochre on a reading chair, ottoman or compact sofa where its warm brown ground can sit comfortably with aged timber, leather and woven natural textures. Keep surrounding colours subdued to let the layered plaid remain the room’s main pattern.

Use this warm ochre-brown plaid to bring a softly rustic, tailored character to upholstered seating.

Pairs well with

Holmes - Ochre 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.
