What can I expect my grasscloth to look like once on the wall?

Colour Shading:

The same as you would see with a silk and other natural fibre, grasscloths absorb the colour dye inconsistently which creates a beautiful shading effect throughout the roll. It’s important to note that the colour shading is normal and part of the beauty of using a natural product that was once alive. Phillip Jeffries use only the best quality grass (the top 20% of the harvest) which minimises the shading in their products, so it’s not as dramatic as other grasscloths on the market.

Seams and Panels:

The grass is laid horizontally across the width of the roll which creates a beautiful panelled look on the wall. The seams will always be notable and are a feature of the product and the special look of a grasscloth. If you desire a seamless outcome with no panelling, there are other options available in the Phillip Jeffries range. View our article on seaming here

Slubbing:

Slubbing and loose yarns is the beauty of a natural hand-crafted product and illustrates the uneven and irregular nature of the yarn.

Oxidising:

Through the prevailing atmospheric conditions, a grasscloth is susceptible to oxidisation whereby there will be a gradual colour change. This is normal and in fact is hard to notice unless a piece of artwork or furniture is moved.

Fading:

All wallcovering and especially natural wallcoverings such as a grass cloth will fade if exposed to sunlight. It is very important as with any wallcovering or fabric that there is good protection from sunlight through effective window coverings.
