About this fabric

The taupe ground has a mellow mushroom cast, while the raised-looking cream motifs catch the light across the densely woven surface. Floral sprays, curling leaves and formal scrolls create a medium-scale damask repeat measuring 65cm vertically by 69cm horizontally. At 388gsm and 56 threads per centimetre, this is a substantial textile with enough visual and tactile depth for upholstery as well as drapery. The usable width is 138cm, supplied in a standard 30m length.

How to use it

Use this warm taupe and cream colourway on a statement armchair, dining seat or full-length curtain, then repeat its pale motif with ivory upholstery trims and its mushroom ground in timber or stone finishes.

Pair the warm taupe ground and pale cream damask with timber, linen and softly aged metallic accents.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Tours Weave Mousseaux without fighting it. 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.
