The perfect pattern for a traditional aesthetic

Herringbone goes back to Ancient Rome, which was used for paths and road systems. The unique geometric pattern assured stability and enabled the Romans to create a complex infrastructure and grow their empire.

The unique weaving process gives herringbone fabric its name, as the pattern forms a V shape that resembles the backbone of a herring fish.

Designers use it for various purposes, including upholstery, clothing and flooring. You'll probably associate herringbone fabric with traditional men's suits because it creates a subtle but intricate finish and is highly popular for formal wear.

However, herringbone is versatile, and people use it as a flooring pattern because it adds depth to a room without crowding the other design elements.

With an assortment of herringbone fabrics available, you can choose between more subtle tones or vibrant colours complementing a contemporary aesthetic.

Chenille herringbone

Pairing the softness of chenille with a herringbone pattern is bound to make an impression, and these stunning designs leave little to the imagination. They immediately stand out, and you'll notice the pattern comes to life when paired with the right colour combination.

If you're looking for a high-end chenille pattern, our Majesty Herringbone Weave pattern combines rich reds and browns to create a lavish finish, perfect for upholstery and soft furnishings.

Other popular colours in the Majesty Collection include more subtle creams, greys and browns. Choose your favourite combinations and take advantage of our £1.00 samples so you can see the supreme quality of each fabric and find the perfect patterns for your needs.

Leather herringbone

With its high-quality feel and natural sheen, leather will always have its place in interior design. However, the expensive price tag and ethical ambiguity mean designers are searching for ways to recreate the premium look of leather while making their designs accessible for everyone.

Luckily, faux leather is more than willing to pick up the slack, and our fabrics look as good as they feel. The overall finish is as good as the real thing, but faux leather is more versatile and comes in many bright colours.

Why not try our Rodeo Basket Weave collection for a bold and contemporary statement? The colours certainly don't shy away from the spotlight! Top-selling shades include ultra-feminine bright pink and teal blue, but you can keep it simple with more neutral colours.

Wool herringbone

The best thing about wool as a fabric is its versatility. Clothes designers love working with wool because it's highly adaptable and creates high-quality tops and coats that withstand the test of time. Wool can be the perfect choice for sofas, cushions and throws because - in design terms -it's always in vogue.

Better still, wool is the perfect platform for rich colours to shine, and we offer some beautiful tones. One of our favourites is the Torwood Soft Wool in Burgundy, which looks as supreme as it feels.

You can also take advantage of the beautiful blue/grey fabric or bring your design ideas to life with the Torwood Brown fabric.
