About this fabric

The colour sits between warm grey and subdued beige, creating a balanced doeskin tone with gentle depth across the swatch. Its tightly packed weave has a small, even grain, while lighter threads catch the light in fine horizontal flecks. The design is visually plain, allowing the woven texture and nuanced colour to provide the interest. No composition, width, rub test or other performance specification has been supplied for this exact fabric.

How to use it

Use Doeskin where a calm taupe-grey backdrop is needed: on a tailored chair, sofa or simple curtain, paired with chalky neutrals, warm timber and softly contrasting grey.

Its softly mottled taupe-grey tone and fine weave bring understated texture to upholstery, curtains or blinds.

Pairs well with

Benetti Doeskin 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.
