Parisienne Fabric

Meurice Cognac has a deep cognac-brown ground crossed by closely spaced diagonal stripes. The alternating dark and lighter bands give the surface a directional, softly dimensional character.

About this fabric

The colour reads as a warm, earthy brown, with lighter cognac ribs set against deep espresso-toned lines. Fine diagonal bands run consistently across the swatch, creating a measured stripe rather than a bold geometric pattern. Its visibly textured surface catches the light unevenly, adding depth to the compact repeat. This colourway has a composed, tailored presence suited to upholstery where the diagonal movement can be shown across a chair, headboard or bench.

How to use it

Pair the warm cognac tone with tobacco leather, dark timber and aged brass for a rich, collected scheme. On a smaller upholstered piece, the diagonal stripe can add movement without overwhelming the room.

Use this warm, richly shaded stripe to bring tailored movement to upholstered seating and occasional pieces.

Pairs well with

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