Vader Colour 10 has a subdued taupe-grey ground, threaded with fine horizontal lines that create a gently striated surface. Its muted depth gives the plain weave a considered, tactile character.

About this fabric

The colour sits between soft grey and weathered brown, reading cool and restrained rather than warm or richly saturated. Close-set horizontal threads run across the surface, producing delicate tonal movement without a visible motif. The compact woven appearance makes this a strong upholstery choice where subtle texture is preferred over pattern. No performance features are noted in the supplied specification for this fabric.

How to use it

Pair this weathered taupe-grey with chalky neutrals, smoked timber and brushed metal for a calm, tailored scheme. It would work particularly well on a clean-lined chair, ottoman or sofa where the fine striation can be seen at close range.

Use this understated taupe-grey weave to bring quiet texture to tailored upholstery and balance warmer timber or stone.

Pairs well with

Vader Colour 10 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.
