About this fabric

The close-up shows a fine woven texture in layered mole brown, taupe and subtle grey-brown tones rather than a single flat colour. Its low-contrast surface catches the light gently, creating depth without a visible motif or strong directional pattern. As part of Zinc Textile’s Dvvoutdoor collection, this fabric is specified for Outdoor use and is well suited to upholstered seating and cushions where a calm, neutral finish is wanted.

How to use it

Use Z837 Mole on outdoor seating, bench cushions or a relaxed upholstered chair, pairing its warm brown-taupe depth with pale stone, weathered timber and muted olive accents. Its restrained texture also works well as a grounding neutral beside patterned outdoor fabrics.

A softly mottled mole shade with a tactile woven surface, ideal for understated outdoor upholstery.

Pairs well with

Z837 Mole 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.
