About this fabric

The surface is visibly woven with a fine, close grain rather than a printed motif, giving the plain colour subtle depth. Its taupe-brown tone sits between warm grey and soft brown, reading earthy and restrained rather than strongly saturated. The folded swatch shows a supple, fluid handle, with shaded ridges contrasting against the lighter face of the cloth. No composition, width, rub test or performance features have been supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use Umbria Thyme to add a grounded taupe-brown layer to a calm sitting room, pairing it with chalky neutrals, weathered timber and softly contrasting grey-browns. Its fluid folds make it equally convincing as relaxed upholstery or full-length drapery.

The softly taupe-brown tone and subtle woven grain bring understated warmth to upholstery, curtains and relaxed layered schemes.

Pairs well with

Umbria Thyme 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.
