Limited Stock Fabric

Frensham Hemp shows a soft, horizontal striated texture in a warm mushroom taupe. The surface reads quietly tonal rather than bold, with a dry, natural-looking finish.

About this fabric

This Titley & Marr fabric has no additional performance specifications supplied, so its appeal sits in the look and feel of the weave itself. The image shows a fine, low-contrast surface with slender horizontal slubs that give the cloth a gently ribbed appearance. Its colouring sits between beige and grey, with a warm hemp note that keeps the taupe from feeling cold. The overall effect is understated and versatile, with just enough texture to add depth without drawing strong attention to the pattern.

How to use it

Use Frensham Hemp as a calm backdrop on a sofa, headboard or relaxed curtains where its muted taupe can sit comfortably with oak, chalk white and putty tones. The subtle striation works especially well in rooms that need texture more than contrast.

A quietly textured neutral that layers easily with timber, linen and soft metallic accents.

Pairs well with

Frensham Hemp 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.
