Sumo Polar
Sumo Fabric
Sumo Polar pairs a softly luminous ivory-cream tone with a striking raised surface. Broad plush ridges run vertically across the cloth, while rounded diagonal channels create a sculptural, tactile rhythm.

About this fabric
The colour reads as a gentle polar ivory rather than a stark white, with subtle warm shading where the raised ridges catch the light. Its deep pile and corded relief give the surface a soft, tactile appearance and a substantial visual weight suited to upholstery. The alternating vertical and diagonal forms add movement without introducing a printed motif. No composition, width or performance figures are supplied for this fabric, so its character is defined here by the visible plush texture and pale cream colourway.
How to use it
Use Sumo Polar on a statement chair, headboard or cushioned banquette where its cool ivory tone can soften darker timber, stone or painted finishes. Keep surrounding fabrics relatively quiet so the raised sculptural ridges remain the focal texture.
Use this plush ivory texture to bring sculptural softness to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.
Pairs well with
Sumo Polar 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.
