Orchard Grosgrain Sandstone

Zoffany x Michael Smith Indoor Outdoor Fabric OutdoorZOF0246-02

Orchard Grosgrain Sandstone has a warm, earthy appearance, with a close fine weave shifting between deeper taupe and pale sandstone. Broad, softly blended tonal areas give the surface gentle depth rather than a defined motif.

About this fabric

The face shows a dense crosswoven texture, with fine horizontal lines catching the light across the muted taupe-sand ground. Deeper mushroom-taupe shading is balanced by lighter sandstone areas, creating a softly weathered, low-contrast finish. At 330 gsm and 150 cm wide, it has the substantial presence expected of an upholstery-weight outdoor textile. Both pattern repeat measurements are 0 cm, while the 42 threads-per-cm construction keeps the visible surface finely detailed.

How to use it

Use this warm sandstone colourway on outdoor seat cushions, dining chairs or a relaxed upholstered bench, pairing it with pale stone, timber and darker taupe accents.

Use this warm, weathered taupe-sand weave to bring a softly tonal finish to outdoor upholstery.

Pairs well with

Orchard Grosgrain Sandstone 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.
