About this fabric

This structured woven fabric is arranged in repeated horizontal bands, with fine vertical yarn lines adding a subtly ribbed surface. The cognac and rust tones give the colourway a warm, earthy depth, while ivory and pale oat bands bring contrast and lift. Pointed zigzags, small diamonds and arrow-like motifs create a distinctly geometric rhythm across the cloth. No composition, width, rub-test or performance data is supplied for this listing, so final suitability should be confirmed against the intended project.

How to use it

Use Szafran Cognac on a statement armchair, bench or occasional upholstery where its warm terracotta depth can anchor a room. Balance the graphic pattern with ivory walls, natural wood and quiet oat-coloured textiles.

Pair this warm cognac weave with ivory, oat and dark timber for a grounded, graphic scheme.

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