About this fabric

The pattern is richly detailed, with scrolling stems, stylised flowers, paisley forms and a prominent elongated central medallion visible across the swatch. Cool steel grey defines the drawing, while softer grey shading adds depth against the light neutral ground without making the design feel stark. Its dense, decorative layout and clearly visible cloth surface give it the presence of a substantial textile suitable for either upholstery or drapery. No further specification data, including composition, width or performance testing, has been supplied.

How to use it

Use Jaipur Steel on a statement armchair, dining seats or full-length curtains where its cool grey detail can sit against ivory walls, limestone tones and dark, weathered wood. The pale ground helps the ornate pattern read as layered rather than heavy.

Pair the cool steel-grey pattern with pale neutrals, aged timber and quiet blue-grey accents.

Pairs well with

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Jaipur Steel without fighting it. 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.
