About this fabric

The colour sits between warm brown and taupe, with a gently weathered appearance that becomes lighter across the raised weave. Its small-scale construction reads as a neat, fine texture rather than a pronounced pattern, while delicate vertical lines add quiet movement. The dense-looking surface is versatile enough to suit upholstery or drapery, depending on the application. No performance features or further specification data are noted for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Kensey Umber to bring quiet warmth and depth to a sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain, especially alongside oatmeal, stone and darker timber tones.

Use the muted umber-brown tone as a quietly grounding layer on upholstery, curtains or cushions, pairing it with warm neutrals and tactile natural textures.

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.
