Kateri Putty

Esala FabricSCF0014-05

Kateri Putty presents a pale putty taupe ground overlaid with a finely drawn field of concentric circular motifs. Its low-contrast colouring keeps the repeated geometry quiet, while the woven surface gives the pattern gentle depth.

About this fabric

This 494 gsm fabric has a substantial, closely woven handle that makes it particularly well suited to upholstery. Fine nested rings repeat across the surface at 16.5 cm vertically and 17 cm horizontally, creating a compact geometric rhythm rather than a dominant statement pattern. The putty shade sits between warm grey and softened beige, with the tonal lines catching the light delicately against the quieter ground. It is supplied at a 136 cm usable width, with 96 threads per cm and a standard length of 30 m.

How to use it

Use Kateri Putty on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its warm grey-beige tone can soften darker timber and charcoal accents. The small-scale rings also work well across larger upholstered areas without overwhelming a calm, tonal scheme.

A dense, softly patterned putty weave for tailored upholstery with subtle geometric interest.

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