Hinton Forest

Hinton Forest has a finely worked, chevron-like weave that reads as orderly and tailored from a distance. In this colourway, the pale ground and muted forest-olive threads give the fabric a fresh, lightly mossed look.

About this fabric

This Sanderson fabric from the Orwell Weaves collection is a substantial woven cloth, with a 140 cm usable width and a dense 841 gsm weight that suggests a firm, upholstery-friendly handle. The pattern repeat is a neat 1.5 cm both vertically and horizontally, creating a tight, rhythmic texture rather than a large-scale motif. Visually, Hinton Forest combines a soft ivory ground with narrow olive-green and grey-green threads, so the overall effect stays calm and earthy rather than dark or saturated. The weave catches the light in a subtle, granular way, which keeps the surface lively while preserving its tailored feel.

How to use it

Use this muted olive-and-ivory colourway on a small armchair, bench seat or ottoman where the compact pattern can be appreciated up close. It also works well with oak, aged brass and chalky neutrals for a quiet, tailored scheme.

A crisp small-scale weave that brings a tailored, natural note to seating and cushions.

Pairs well with

Hinton Forest 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.
