Polanco Mole

Name: Polanco Mole
Brand: Zinc Textile

Polanco Mole pairs a deep mole-brown ground with closely repeated pale marks that travel vertically across the cloth. The result is a restrained graphic texture with a softly irregular, hand-drawn feel.

About this fabric

The dark brown-grey tone gives this colourway a grounded, quietly dramatic presence, while the light broken dashes keep the surface from appearing flat. Each narrow vertical mark varies slightly in length and alignment, creating movement across the tightly arranged horizontal rows. The visible weave reads as dense and matte rather than glossy, making the pattern feel composed and tactile on upholstered forms. With no further performance specification supplied, its suitability here is judged from the substantial-looking woven construction visible in the swatch.

How to use it

Use Polanco Mole on a tailored armchair, dining seat or compact sofa where its warm mole tone can act as a deep neutral. Pair it with pale stone upholstery, aged timber and understated metal so the cream-coloured dashes remain a subtle graphic accent.

Use this dense-looking mole-brown weave to bring quiet graphic texture to upholstered seating and occasional furniture.

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