Boxgrove Cognac

Name: Boxgrove Cognac
Brand: Zinc Textile

Boxgrove Cognac reads as a warm taupe-cognac cloth in the photographed room, with darker brown shading gathering through the curtain pleats. Its gently irregular surface gives the plain colour visible depth rather than a flat finish.

About this fabric

The curtains show a muted cognac-taupe ground that shifts from pale oatmeal highlights to deeper brown along the folds and upper pleats. Fine vertical slubbing is visible across the hanging panels, while a horizontal construction line separates the darker gathered upper section from the lighter lower drop. Catalogued as a fabric with no performance features noted, it is shown here in a full-length drapery application. The overall effect is warm, tactile and quietly relaxed rather than glossy or strongly patterned.

How to use it

Use Boxgrove Cognac for floor-length curtains in rooms built around warm stone, timber and aged brown tones. Pair its pale taupe highlights with a richer cognac accent, such as the ochre cushion shown in the setting, to draw out the colour’s warmth.

Use this warm cognac-taupe cloth for full-length curtains where its softly textured surface can catch the light in generous folds.

Pairs well with

Boxgrove Cognac 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.
