Chika Ecru

Name: Chika Ecru
Brand: Sanderson
SKU: SAF0094-03

Chika Ecru shows a calm herringbone weave in a soft ecru ivory tone, with the structure of the pattern standing out more than any contrast. The finish feels light in colour but substantial in texture.

About this fabric

This woven fabric from Sanderson Home Fabrics has a usable width of 140 cm and a substantial 385 gsm weight, which gives the cloth a reassuring body on the roll. The pattern repeat runs 5.5 cm horizontally with no vertical repeat, and the visible herringbone chevron creates a tidy, directional surface. In Chika Ecru, the yarns read as warm ivory with faint grey-beige undertones, so the pattern looks crisp rather than stark. The texture is clearly apparent in the image, with the weave catching light softly and keeping the overall effect understated and refined.

How to use it

Use this ecru colourway on armchairs, banquettes or ottoman bases where the small-scale weave can add texture without dominating the room. Its pale, warm neutral tone works especially well with timber, limestone and muted green accents.

A quietly textured neutral that pairs easily with oak, linen and pale painted finishes.

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