Oxley Tamarind

Oxley Fabric

Oxley Tamarind brings together softened teal, blue-grey, taupe and cream in a layered plaid. Its gently textured surface gives the checked design a mellow, tactile character rather than a crisp graphic edge.

About this fabric

The pattern is built from varied vertical and horizontal bands, creating medium-scale checks that shift between dusky teal, sage, mushroom taupe, cream and small touches of olive-brown. Several colours appear lightly blended through the weave, so the blocks have a softened, almost weathered quality. Pale lines catch the light across the surface, while deeper blue-grey bands add definition and depth. The overall impression is calm and relaxed, with enough tonal variation to sit comfortably among natural and painted finishes.

How to use it

Use this muted teal colourway on an occasional chair, bench or relaxed curtain scheme, balancing its cool blue-green notes with oatmeal, warm grey and honeyed wood. The cream and taupe checks also make it easy to layer with plain cushions in softly contrasting neutrals.

Pair the softened teal checks with warm neutrals, pale timber and aged brass for an easy, layered scheme.

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.
