About this fabric
The fabric is woven in a small, regular crosshatch that gives the otherwise plain surface subtle depth without introducing a visible motif. Its light tobacco tone sits between warm beige and soft taupe, reading calm and gently earthy rather than strongly brown. The close weave appears mid-weight and versatile, making it suitable for either upholstery or drapery. No performance features or further specification data are supplied for this fabric.
How to use it
Use Elbert Tobacco to bring quiet warmth to an upholstered chair, bench or sofa, or let its soft taupe tone form an understated curtain backdrop. Pair it with chalky creams, natural timber and deeper tobacco or olive accents to draw out the weave’s earthy character.
A quietly textured tobacco taupe with a fine woven surface that suits both upholstered pieces and soft furnishings.

Elbert Tobacco 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.
