grasscloth
Natural fiber fabric
Grasscloth is a woven wall covering made from natural plant fibers—typically jute, seagrass, or arrowroot—attached to a paper backing.
It has a distinctive textured appearance and is prized in interior design for adding organic warmth to walls: The dining room featured grasscloth wallpaper in a muted green.
The material is more expensive and harder to install than standard wallpaper.
