Ruskin Oatmeal

Ruskin Oatmeal is a quietly textured plain weave in a warm, brown-tinged beige. Fine vertical variation across the swatch gives the surface more depth than a flat cream.

About this fabric

The close, even weave has a softly tactile appearance, with delicate vertical striations running through the oatmeal ground. Its muted brown-grey undertone keeps the colour grounded and prevents it from reading as pale or stark, while the surface catches light with a gentle, low-key softness. No performance features are noted in the supplied information, so the fabric should be assessed against the requirements of the intended upholstery or drapery project.

How to use it

Use Ruskin Oatmeal on relaxed upholstery or full-length curtains where its warm beige tone can soften darker timber, stone and earthy neutral finishes. The subtle woven grain also works well alongside smoother wool, leather or painted surfaces.

Pair the warm oatmeal-beige ground with walnut, stone and brushed metal for a quietly layered scheme.

Pairs well with

Ruskin Oatmeal 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.
