About this fabric

The fabric’s small-scale herringbone structure is clearly visible across the swatch, with alternating darker and lighter threads giving the surface a softly flecked appearance. Its mocha colouring sits between warm brown and cool grey, creating a grounded, understated finish rather than a rich reddish brown. The compact woven texture reads as tailored and traditional, with enough tonal variation to add depth across upholstered forms. No performance features are noted in the supplied record.

How to use it

Use Traditional - Mocha on a classic armchair, dining seat or sofa where its brown-grey tone can anchor cream, stone and aged timber. Pair it with warm metal accents to bring out the softer mocha threads.

Its restrained mocha tone and fine herringbone texture suit tailored upholstery and quietly traditional interiors.

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