About this fabric

The close view shows a regular small-scale weave, with subtle variation between soft grey and oatmeal-like threads. Light catches the surface gently, bringing out a quiet flecked effect without creating a distinct motif or pattern. The fabric is catalogued as a textile with no performance features noted, so its appeal here is the balanced tone and neat woven finish.

How to use it

Use this warm seal-grey as a quiet foundation on tailored seating, cushions or full-length curtains. Its slight oatmeal cast can soften cooler whites while sitting comfortably beside natural timber, stone and muted neutrals.

A quiet warm-grey woven cloth with a clean, lightly tactile surface for understated upholstery or drapery.

Pairs well with

Whitewell Seal 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.
