About this fabric

The colour sits between muted taupe, olive and soft brown, giving the cloth a grounded warmth rather than a cool grey effect. A close, even weave creates a fine grain across the surface, with no visible motif or pattern. The fabric’s relaxed folds suggest a supple hand and a fluid, versatile presence for both upholstery and drapery. Shadows deepen the acorn shade in the creases, while raised areas catch the light with a softly brushed appearance.

How to use it

Use this warm olive-taupe colourway to bring quiet depth to a neutral sitting room, pairing it with chalky creams, aged timber and brushed metal. Its soft folds would suit relaxed curtains, while the understated woven surface can also complement a tailored occasional chair or sofa.

A softly textured olive-taupe cloth with an easy drape for understated upholstery or curtains.

Pairs well with

Alpaka Acorn 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.
