About this fabric

The fabric’s close, small-scale weave creates a subtle grid effect rather than a distinct printed motif. Its oatmeal-beige colouring is warmed by faint taupe variation, giving the surface more depth than a flat plain cloth. The folds show a fabric with enough body to hold soft shaping while retaining a natural, relaxed appearance. No performance features or further technical specifications are noted in the supplied record.

How to use it

Use this warm oatmeal colourway to soften relaxed seating, headboards or full-length curtains, pairing it with chalky whites, natural timber and deeper taupe accents. Its quiet woven texture also works well as a neutral foundation where patterned furnishings need to remain the focus.

A warm oatmeal-beige woven texture that brings quiet depth to upholstery, cushions, curtains and blinds.

Pairs well with

Obscura Melba 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.
