Arrowhead Tobacco

Salamander Fabric

Arrowhead Tobacco sets softly textured tobacco-brown arrowheads and rounded motifs against a warm ivory ground. The repeated geometry has a calm, earthy depth rather than a bright or high-saturation feel.

About this fabric

This fabric from Zinc Textile’s Salamander collection combines orderly arrowhead forms with alternating circular motifs in a warm tobacco brown. Subtle tonal variation across the shapes gives the surface a gently mottled, tactile appearance, while the ivory background keeps the repeat open and clearly defined. Catalogued as a fabric, it has no performance features noted in the supplied specification. Its balanced visual weight makes it suitable to consider for both upholstery and drapery.

How to use it

Pair Arrowhead Tobacco with natural oak, aged leather and warm ivory upholstery for a grounded scheme, or use it on curtains to introduce a measured geometric rhythm without losing the room’s softness.

Use the warm tobacco-and-ivory contrast to bring tailored definition to sofas, occasional chairs or relaxed curtains.

Pairs well with

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