Elbert Ember

Elbert Ember has a warm ember-terracotta ground with fine, closely spaced threads that create a softly crosshatched surface. Subtle brown and lighter rust variations give the colourway a gently weathered depth rather than a flat block of colour.

About this fabric

Catalogued as a fabric from Zinc Textile’s Zambales collection, Elbert Ember is shown here as a woven textile with a fine, linear crosshatch texture. Its terracotta tone sits between earthy rust and softened clay, while the mixed thread colour keeps the surface visually nuanced. The restrained texture reads as tactile without introducing a bold motif, making the material suitable for upholstery or drapery where a warm, quietly textured finish is wanted. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Elbert Ember to warm a neutral room with an earthy clay note, particularly on an occasional chair, headboard or relaxed curtain. Pair its muted rust tone with timber, aged brass, warm cream and deeper brown accents.

The warm, softly variegated weave brings earthy depth to upholstery, cushions, curtains or blinds.

Pairs well with

Elbert Ember is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
