Rattan Jute

Salamander Fabric

Rattan Jute has a softly weathered taupe-brown appearance, with fine horizontal striations running across the surface. Its layered neutral colouring gives the plain weave gentle depth rather than a flat, uniform finish.

About this fabric

The colour sits between warm taupe, muted brown and sandy beige, with lighter and darker threads creating a natural, jute-like variation. Closely spaced horizontal lines give the surface a visibly nubby, irregular texture, while the low-contrast tonal shifts keep the overall effect calm. There are no visible motifs or printed markings, making the character of this Zinc Textile cloth come entirely from its woven surface and earthy colour.

How to use it

Use Rattan Jute on a tailored armchair, bench or headboard where its warm taupe-brown tone can sit comfortably with timber, stone and soft cream upholstery. Pair it with deeper brown accents to draw out the darker threads in the weave.

Its warm, striated taupe-brown weave brings understated texture to upholstered seating and headboards.

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.
