Name: Salamander Tobacco
Brand: Zinc Textile

Salamander Tobacco places scattered salamanders in warm tobacco brown across a pale cream ground. The finely textured surface gives the playful reptile pattern a quieter, tactile finish.

About this fabric

This fabric is catalogued as a textile, with no composition, width or performance features supplied. Its pale cream background keeps the overall colourway light, while the tobacco-brown salamanders bring earthy warmth and clear contrast. The figures vary between softly filled silhouettes and finer lined details, with curling tails and small articulated feet creating movement across the repeat. A subtle woven-looking grain remains visible through the ground and motifs, tempering the illustrated design with a natural, textural feel.

How to use it

Use Salamander Tobacco to brighten a relaxed reading chair, occasional upholstery or full-length curtains, pairing its warm tobacco accents with oak, tan leather and soft cream walls.

A warm cream-and-tobacco ground with an illustrated salamander motif for relaxed upholstery or softly tailored curtains.

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