About this fabric

The shade sits between soft grey and muted blue, with pale and deeper threads creating a lightly weathered depth rather than a flat block of colour. Fine horizontal and vertical lines form a subtle crosshatched weave, while the uneven tonal shifts become more apparent across the swatch. The overall effect is calm and tailored, with a restrained texture instead of a pronounced pattern. No performance features are noted for this fabric.

How to use it

Use this cool blue-grey colourway to bring a composed, lightly textured finish to a sofa, occasional chair or full-length curtain. It pairs naturally with chalky whites, deeper slate tones and pale timber, allowing the woven variation to provide quiet interest.

A versatile cool blue-grey weave with understated tonal depth for upholstery or drapery.

Wareham 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.
