Etch Caramel

Name: Etch Caramel
Brand: Zinc Textile

Etch Caramel has a warm, muted brown tone with a subtle caramel cast. Its close-set vertical ribbing gives the surface a fine, gently linear texture rather than a printed pattern.

About this fabric

This Marbleous colourway reads as a softened caramel brown, with darker and lighter threads creating quiet depth across the surface. The fine vertical ribbed weave catches the light in narrow lines, giving the cloth a tailored, lightly tactile finish. It is suitable for upholstery or drapery based on its versatile woven appearance. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification.

How to use it

Use Etch Caramel to bring warmth to a neutral scheme, particularly alongside natural timber, cream linen and darker brown accents. Its restrained vertical texture also works well on tailored seating or full-length curtains where the caramel tone can read softly rather than brightly.

The warm, muted caramel-brown tone pairs naturally with deep wood, oatmeal upholstery and softly contrasting neutral textiles.

Pairs well with

Etch Caramel 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.
