Lori Avocet

Name: Lori Avocet
Brand: Black Edition

Lori Avocet has a softly variegated greige appearance, built from a dense woven texture that shifts between warm grey, cream and charcoal. Its restrained surface pattern gives the colourway quiet depth without a dominant motif.

About this fabric

The close-up reveals a tightly packed, small-scale weave with irregular charcoal and cream flecks dispersed across a warm greige ground. The mixed threads create a softly mottled surface rather than a flat block of colour, with fine tonal variation visible throughout. No composition, width or rub-test specification has been supplied for this exact fabric. As a textile rather than a patterned mural, its visual interest comes from the close woven texture and subtle contrast.

How to use it

Use this warm greige colourway to soften a neutral sitting room, pairing it with cream upholstery details, charcoal accents or natural timber. Its low-contrast flecked surface can work across seating, cushions or understated curtains without overpowering surrounding materials.

A warm greige ground with charcoal-and-cream flecks brings subtle depth to upholstery, cushions or softly tailored drapery.

Pairs well with

Lori Avocet 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.
