Lucca Sesame

Alonso FabricCCF0390-12

Lucca Sesame reads as a warm, earthy brown with a gentle taupe cast across the close-up swatch. Its quiet plain weave and low sheen give the surface a softly grounded appearance rather than a decorative patterned effect.

About this fabric

The photographed colour sits between sesame brown and muted taupe, with subtle tonal variation across its closely woven surface. No motif is visible: both the vertical and horizontal pattern repeats are 0 cm, making it a genuinely plain cloth. At 386 gsm and 140 cm usable width, Lucca Sesame has the weight and substance expected of an upholstery fabric. The supplied standard length is 30 m, providing a practical run for coordinating larger upholstered pieces.

How to use it

Use this warm sesame-brown colourway to bring depth to a neutral sitting room, particularly on sofas, dining chairs or a padded headboard. Pair it with chalky creams, natural timber and darker walnut tones to draw out its earthy, quietly taupe character.

A warm, softly textured brown for upholstered seating, headboards and other substantial pieces.

Pairs well with

Lucca Sesame 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.
