About this fabric

The colour reads as a pale greige, sitting between warm ivory and soft stone rather than a clear cream or grey. Across the swatch, closely packed horizontal threads create a quiet strié effect, with fine irregular lines that give the otherwise plain surface gentle movement. No performance features are noted for this fabric; the image shows a restrained, fine-textured cloth rather than a patterned or pile surface.

How to use it

Use this pale greige colourway where a room needs a light, calm foundation without the starkness of white. It will sit naturally beside chalky neutrals, pale timber and layered stone shades, allowing the fine horizontal weave to provide subtle definition.

Pair its pale greige tone with chalky whites, natural timber and quiet tonal layers.

Pairs well with

Vader 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.
