About this fabric

The ground reads as a light greige taupe, balanced between warm beige and cool grey rather than strongly favouring either. Pale ivory-grey wave motifs travel vertically across the cloth in closely repeated, undulating rows. Fine woven texture and small tonal irregularities soften the pattern edges, giving the surface a tactile, textile-led character. The low-contrast palette keeps the design understated while the rhythmic waves add gentle visual movement.

How to use it

Use this pale greige-taupe colourway on a relaxed armchair, ottoman or full-length curtain, pairing it with chalky whites, soft stone and weathered wood. Its quiet wave rhythm works particularly well where a neutral scheme needs texture without a strong contrast.

Use this softly neutral greige-taupe weave to bring gentle movement to upholstery, cushions or curtains.

Pairs well with

Battersea Wave Colour 2 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.
