Antique-Linen Papyrus

About this fabric

The swatch reads as a gentle taupe-beige, warmer than a cool grey and softened by the subdued papyrus shade. A fine, closely set plain weave is visible across the surface, while gathered areas deepen into delicate brown-grey shadows. The fabric falls into rounded, fluid folds in the image, suggesting a versatile mid-weight handle suitable for both upholstery and drapery. No performance features or further specification data have been supplied, so its defining qualities here are the restrained colour, fine weave and natural-looking texture.

How to use it

Use this warm papyrus-taupe on relaxed seating where its fine woven texture can be seen up close, or let it fall as softly gathered curtains to emphasise the shade’s gentle depth. It pairs naturally with warm wood, chalky neutrals and understated earthy tones.

Antique-Linen Papyrus 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.
