About this fabric
The close-up shows taupe warmed with a gentle beige cast, softened by fine grey and ivory-looking threads that prevent the shade from appearing flat. Delicate vertical and horizontal striations form a low-contrast, almost brushed grid across the surface rather than a bold printed motif. The visible structure reads as a versatile mid-weight weave, making it suitable for both upholstery and drapery. No composition, width or rub-test information has been supplied for this colourway, and no performance features are noted.
How to use it
Use this muted taupe-grey as a quiet foundation in a room with warm timber, stone and softly contrasting ivory textiles. Its subtle linear texture can add depth to an upholstered chair or full-length curtains without competing with stronger patterns.
A softly mottled taupe weave that brings quiet texture to upholstery, curtains and layered neutral schemes.
Pairs well with
03 Taupe 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.
