About this fabric

The colour sits between warm grey and softened taupe, with a restrained earthy cast visible across the swatch. Fine horizontal striations run consistently through the cloth, creating a delicate linear texture without a bold motif. The dense-looking weave reads as composed and tailored, making this a natural choice for upholstery where a quiet surface texture is preferred. No composition, width or performance rating has been supplied for this colourway.

How to use it

Use Vader Colour 7 on a tailored armchair, sofa or dining seat where its muted taupe-grey tone can soften darker timber and sit comfortably alongside stone, linen and warm neutral finishes. Keep surrounding patterns understated so the subtle horizontal texture remains visible.

A quietly textured taupe-grey weave for tailored upholstery and calm, tonal interiors.

Pairs well with

Vader Colour 7 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.
