Name: Wessex Marl Fabric

Misc Fabric

Wessex Marl is shown here in a very light grey marl, with fine alternating threads forming a subtle herringbone surface. Its soft tonal variation gives the cloth more depth than a flat plain.

About this fabric

The close-set weave is made up of pale grey and lighter threads, creating a gently flecked appearance across the swatch. A tiny repeating herringbone or chevron structure is visible throughout, adding direction without becoming a bold pattern. The overall tone reads cool, quiet and softly textured rather than stark white or deep grey. No composition, width or rub-test information has been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use this pale marl grey to lighten a tailored chair, sofa or curtain scheme, pairing its fine herringbone texture with smooth timber, brushed metal or other understated neutrals.

The pale grey marl and fine herringbone weave bring quiet texture to upholstery or drapery.

A pattern needs somewhere for the eye to rest, so these are the plains and textures that sit beside Wessex Marl Fabric without fighting it. 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.
