About this fabric

This colourway shows a cool dove-grey ground crossed by repeated vertical waves in soft ivory. The close weave gives the surface a fine, lightly nubby texture, while the pale motif catches the light against the quieter grey field. At this scale, the pattern reads as an even rhythmic stripe rather than a bold oversized graphic. No composition, width, rub-test or performance-feature information is supplied for this fabric.

How to use it

Use the cool grey and ivory palette to bring gentle movement to a tailored chair, ottoman or full-length curtain. It works particularly well with chalky whites, pale stone and understated silver-grey accents.

Cool dove grey and ivory waves bring quiet rhythm and tactile texture to upholstery or drapery.

Battersea Wave Colour 1 is a quiet cloth, so it carries a pattern beside it: one of these on the curtains and this on the chair. 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.
