About this fabric

The close, irregular weave gives this colourway a tactile, lightly nubby appearance rather than a smooth or polished finish. Its dark brown tone is muted and grounded, with shaded folds reading almost charcoal while raised areas reveal warmer brown flecks. The fabric is shown gathered into substantial folds, indicating a visually weighty textile suited to upholstery. No performance features are noted for this catalogue entry.

How to use it

Use Parker Bitter on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its deep brown tone can anchor lighter walls, warm timber and brushed metal accents. Pair it with oat, stone or rust shades to draw out the warmer flecks visible in the weave.

Use this deep brown, nubby weave to bring grounded contrast to tailored upholstery and darker neutral schemes.

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.
