Cape Mohair Lichen
Cape Mohair Fabric
Cape Mohair Lichen is a softly heathered plain with an earthy olive-beige cast and a low, velvety sheen. Its surface reads warm and tactile rather than flat, with the colour shifting subtly as the light moves across it.

About this fabric
Woven in 50% Mohair and 50% Acrylic, this upholstery fabric has the plush, close-finished handle you expect from a mohair blend, with enough body for regular seating use. The 140 cm width makes it practical for larger upholstery jobs, while the plain pattern keeps the emphasis on the texture and tonal depth. In Lichen, the shade sits between moss, khaki and taupe, giving it a muted, natural look that feels grounded rather than bright. With an 80,000 Martindale rub test, it is specified for demanding upholstered pieces as well as decorative cushions that need durability.
How to use it
Use this lichen tone on armchairs, sofas or banquettes where you want an earthy neutral with more character than beige. It pairs especially well with dark timber, natural linens and aged brass for a calm, layered scheme.
A quietly earthy shade that works beautifully on tailored seating and clean-lined cushions.

Cape Mohair Lichen 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.
