About this fabric

The warm taupe-grey ground is threaded with pale beige stems, feathery sprays and layered, fan-like leaves, creating a calm botanical rhythm. Fine slub-like variation is visible across the surface, giving the muted colourway a gently tactile, timeworn character rather than a flat printed appearance. At 510 gsm, this is a substantial upholstery fabric, with a close specification of 14 threads per cm. The 70.5 cm vertical repeat and 70 cm horizontal repeat give the motif a clearly structured, evenly spaced scale, while the 140 cm usable width supports practical upholstery planning.

How to use it

Use this warm, muted taupe-grey on a sofa, headboard or dining chair where its pale foliage can sit quietly against stone, mushroom and warm ivory tones. Pair it with aged timber and brushed metal to bring out the colourway’s softly patinated character.

A substantial taupe-grey botanical weave for tailored upholstery and refined occasional seating.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Highclere Mousseux 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.
