About this fabric

This colourway has a restrained aluminium-grey cast with a faint silvery lift where the light catches the weave, giving the plain cloth a quiet depth rather than a flat finish. Supplied in 100% polyester, it is specified for Severe Contract Upholstery And Drapes and has a 50,000 Severe Contract rub test, making it a practical choice for demanding interiors. The fabric is 140cm wide and has a substantial handle at 455 grams per linear metre, 325 grams per square metre. Made in India, Galaxy Aluminium feels crisp, modern and deliberately understated, with a cool tone that sits comfortably in contemporary schemes.

How to use it

Use this shade to bring a tailored, architectural feel to seating, or pair it with pale stone and black accents for a crisp, tonal scheme. It also makes a smart drape colour when you want softness without introducing warmth.

A cool metallic grey that works neatly on tailored upholstery or understated drapes.

Pairs well with

Galaxy Aluminium 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.
