About this fabric

The Moleskin colourway sits between taupe and muted grey, with a gentle warmth rather than a cool stone cast. A fine crosshatch weave is clearly visible in the close-up, adding quiet surface interest without introducing a printed motif. Slight variations between lighter and darker threads keep the plain ground from looking flat. Its substantial-looking woven character makes it a natural choice for upholstered seating.

How to use it

Use this warm taupe-grey on a sofa, armchair or dining seat where its low-contrast weave can add depth without dominating the room. Pair it with chalky neutrals, natural timber and aged metal for a relaxed, understated scheme.

A warm taupe plain weave that brings quiet texture to upholstered seating.

Linara Moleskin 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.
