About this fabric

The pale oatmeal background is covered with closely packed taupe-grey paisleys, giving this colourway a softly weathered, low-contrast appearance. Stitched outlines and dotted interiors create visible tactile relief across the 241 gsm surface. With a usable width of 127 cm, the fabric is a versatile mid-weight choice for both upholstery and drapery. Its 39 cm vertical repeat and 41.5 cm horizontal repeat should be considered when positioning the small-scale motifs.

How to use it

Use the cool, muted taupe-grey pattern to bring quiet definition to an oatmeal or warm-grey chair, headboard or curtain. Its compact repeat works especially well where an ornamental surface is wanted without a bold block of colour.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Suzani Embroidery Zinc/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.
