About taupe. Taupe (pronunced TOHP) is a grayish brown or brownish gray colour named after the the french word for Mole. Originally, 'taupe' was limited to quite dark shades of grey-brown which corresponded to the actual colour of French moles, but in recent times the word has taken on a wider usage and is now taken to refer to all sorts of lshades of grey-brown, with no particular amount of grey or brown required to be present.

Taupe makes an excellent choice for upholstery and curtain fabric as it is both elegant and understated whilst also being a very servicable colour.
